Murthy (surname) → Murthy – There are only 2 uses of "Murthy": Murthy (surname) and an alternative spelling of Murti to which Murthy currently redirects. So (1) move Murthy (surname) over the redirect at Murthy; (2) put a distinguish hatnote there; (3) delete Murthy (disambiguation) as not required. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 12:30, 11 February 2019 (UTC)

 * Support per nom. Seems reasonable. PC78 (talk) 17:05, 11 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Support per nom. Station1 (talk) 08:40, 13 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Alternate proposal - move the disambiguation page to the basename of Murthy! It seems there's no clear 100% primary topic for the name. Paintspot Infez (talk) 13:12, 14 February 2019 (UTC)
 * If that isn't done the DAB page should be deleted per WP:G14.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 14:30, 14 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 16:10, 14 February 2019 (UTC)
 * There are only 2 potentially ambiguous uses. Note that although the redirect Murthy currently targets Murti, the word is not used in that article, which leads me believe the primary topic is the other use (the surname). Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 16:10, 14 February 2019 (UTC)


 * Support all of the nominator's proposals. A DAB is not needed per WP:TWODABS; nb WP:2DABPRIMARY on weighing the relative notability of the two topics.  —  AjaxSmack  19:06, 18 February 2019 (UTC)

Blanking
Why was the etymology of Murthy (which is attested from Wiktionary, and uncontroversial) blanked without first resorting to discussion in this "Talk" page? We should aim to edit Wikipedia with an aim to improving, not depleting our content, and to do so in genuinely collaborative, collegial manner, engaging in discussion rather than summary blanking.

 * (Kannada: ಮೂರ್ತಿ, deriving from Sanskrit मूर्ति, mūrti)
