Talk:Reginald Drax

Reginald Drax v. Reginald Plunkett
I have moved the article from Reginald Drax to Reginald Plunkett, because I believe this is the name more usually used. See for example


 * , the reference currently in the document, where he gets referred to as Plunkett throughout most of the biography part;
 * Andrew Gordon's The Rules of the Game,where he is referred to as Plunkett throughout
 * Robert Massie's Castles of Steel, in discussing his role as flag commander on HMS Lion during the Battle of Jutland
 * The front of the Naval Review magazine - for example, where he appears in a list of founders of the magazine

 * I think the article should be moved back. He would have been referred to as Plunkett in Gordon and Massie's accounts of Jutland and as one of the founders of the Naval Review in 1912 because that was his only surname at that time. The Ernle, Erle and Drax were adopted in October 1916 (as I've just added to the article). Even in the first source given he is referred to as "Admiral Drax" in his later career.
