I propose merging the two articles, to the better-developed page. The Gofraid spelling appears to be more common in modern times, the lenited version is barely distinguishable and has been used interchangeably (along with Norse, anglicized, latinised, and other spellings). I would not be opposed to a merge in the other direction (Gofraidh produces more raw Google hits, so may be more common in regard to historical people). Regardless, we definitely do not need a bunch of WP:REDUNDANTFORKs on every possible spelling of this name (or any name), especially when most of it's just disambiguation "un-content" instead of real content, spelling varies widely even for the same historical subjects, there are many more such variants, and none of them are likely possible to develop into a real and properly sourced article on the name without combining them. — SMcCandlish ☺☏¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼ 23:07, 10 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
