William, or Patrick?

[edit]

Someone posted a request at WP:RM to move this page to Patrick "Staker" Wallace, citing the evidently true fact that more of the sources call him Patrick than William. Is there any opposition to this suggestion? -GTBacchus(talk) 00:15, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion of Wallace's first name OR?

[edit]

The section discussing naming patterns in justification of Wallace's first name being "Patrick" are unreferenced and read like possible original research. Can someone provide a reliable source making these arguments? Is it established scholarship, or should it be attributed? --Rogerb67 (talk) 13:24, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Irish naming patterns

[edit]

The traditional pattern for naming Irish children is common knowledge among genealogists. It is not original research. See, for example, http://ahd.exis.net/monaghan/irish-names-naming.htm, http://www.mengelfamily.com/naming/namingirish.htm, http://www.ballyd.com/results/namingpatterns.htm, http://www.igp-web.com/cork/Naming.html, etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.183.178.121 (talk) 00:26, 29 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
