Charlie Getzein → Charlie Getzien – Correct name per Getzien's headstone. bender235 (talk) 23:31, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Moved from Technical requests. I don't think Findagrave.com is considered reliable source here. Also per GA review above it appears The New York Time, at least once used the current name. So better discuss this. –Ammarpad (talk) 01:04, 11 June 2018 (UTC)


 * S/B Pretzels Getzien per Baseball-reference.com (many sources in article) and Pretzel Getzein per this source. I don't think Charlie should be the first name. Not sure whether the first name should be singular or plural. Google autocomplete suggests ie. Forbes thinks the last name is ie and the first is singular here. MLB.com thinks it is ie and plural per this. I think BR.com and MLB.com should guide us here.

 * Support move to Pretzels Getzien per TonyTheTiger. As for the spelling of the surname on the gravestone, his wife, who died 15 years later, also has the form "Getzien" on her gravestone (both gravestones were likely created at the same time since the one for the wife has only her birthdate inscribed).
