 * Oppose - Known for being a Diplomat and a far more sensible disambiguation than the peerage title.--Lucy-marie (talk) 18:27, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

 * Support. Former diplomats who have been ennobled are almost invariably known by their titles thereafter. Also a good form of disambiguation. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:31, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment - This is not a Crystal Ball and what they are currently known is what we have to take as the current commonly used name. If in the future the individual is known regularly by their ennobled title then that would be grounds to change the article title. To though say, it is expected that the names they are known by will change is not how things work on Wikipeida. Also the ennobled title is not the best disambiguation for this individual--Lucy-marie (talk) 17:35, 5 February 2011 (UTC)

 * Oppose - still seems to be mainly known by his non-peer name, e.g.
