Aemilius Papinianus → Papinian – He is much better known as Papinian in English (WP:COMMONNAME). And all the sources of the article save one present him as "Papinian" as well. Orkhonien (talk) 14:01, 19 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Support, "For foreign names, phrases, and words generally, adopt the spellings most commonly used in English-language references for the article, unless those spellings are idiosyncratic or obsolete," per WP:MOS. This name has a well-established common English-language form. We can skip the research and follow a widely available reference work like Columbia Encyclopedia.
