Training Center of Racing Club of Strasbourg → Racing Mutest Académie – The current name is not the common name whatsoever and doesn't make much sense. It's not the proper naming convention or the official name. The club renamed it's youth academy in 2019, and it's clearly they are pushing forward the new name of the academy. This seems to be the official name of the academy. See the sources. 1 2 3. Additionally, other websites are using this term so I could see it being a common name. 4 5.

 * Support current name is not the common name (not least because in France they would spell it Centre not Center), and the proposed name is used in many sources, so does seem to be the common name. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:16, 27 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Comment Training Center's just a translation of Centre de formation into AmEng, although I'd have put it after the club name rather than before. But do we not have a de facto naming convention for French club academies? there are only 3 others: SC Bastia Reserves and Academy, Olympique Lyonnais Reserves and Academy and Paris Saint-Germain Academy. Also, we don't usually use sponsored names: Mutest is a Strasbourg-based health insurance company. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 18:30, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I will change my vote to support this proposal (team name followed by Academy or Youth Academy), to match other articles, and avoid sponsor name. Joseph2302 (talk) 11:56, 29 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Rename to Centre de formation du Racing Club de Strasbourg, its actual name. Absolutely no need to translate into bad English (which is never in reality used, so shouldn't be used by us per WP:UE) or to use a sponsorship name. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:40, 29 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Its own website doesn't refer to it as this. We don't need to use long French language names, when we could use RC Strasbourg Acadmy instead, which is better for WP:UE and WP:CONCISE. Joseph2302 (talk) 11:58, 29 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Oppose: I would move to either RC Strasbourg Alsace Reserves and Academy or RC Strasbourg Alsace Academy. Nehme1499</b> 17:30, 30 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment perhaps we should try and find a solution for this?   Paul Vaurie (talk) 16:57, 11 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Oppose move to Racing Mutest Académie, support Rename to RC Strasbourg Alsace Academy. Per apparent de facto naming convention, and to avoid unnecessary use of sponsored name. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 17:20, 11 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Sounds good, lets do it. Paul Vaurie (talk) 01:31, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
