- It's okey for me (if decide on the principle of notability).--Morgan 16:19, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
- Maybe. It would be good to see what other editors think.--Morgan 18:43, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
- I agree with the principle of notability. TG is meant to serve the readers and they are most likely to search for the most common name. I vote to move Námo to Mandos and Irmo to Lórien.--Gamling 19:58, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
