Use of titles
Regarding the quoted case, Chandrasekharendra Saraswati Kanchi Mahaswamigal, I'd dispute that he is widely known by this name, which includes the two word title. He's most commonly referred to as Chandrasekharendra Saraswati. Actually the most common spelling is Chandrasekharendra Saraswathi. Imc 18:08, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

Further to the above; I believe that titles should only be used in a name when they are widely used (perhaps applying the 75% rule) in real life. Othewise the most common name should be used. This would let in Mahatma Gandhi but not, for instance, Jayendra Saraswati Swamigal, who is almost always known as Jayendra Saraswati. Imc 18:34, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
