Johnny Beecher (ice hockey)Johnny Beecher – Clearly fits WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. "Johnny Beecher" currently redirects to a jazz musician that used "Johnny Beecher" as a moniker for only two albums in 1962, neither of which are even notable enough to have their own standalone articles. Johnny Beecher the ice hockey player has easily become the more notable individual in this case; a simple Google search ought to show that.

I would say neither John nor Johnny is used more than the other — with these sources here using "Johnny": [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12] — but as far as I know, Beecher himself prefers "Johnny" to "John". Aria1561 (talk) 00:01, 26 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Relisting comment: Apparent consensus to move somewhere. No consensus as to where. estar8806 (talk) 03:09, 11 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
