You and I (Lady Gaga song) → Yoü and I – This is not how the song is stylized, this is the actual name. The single cover and iTunes recognize the song name with the "ü". Therefore, I consider this the actual name of the song. 2601:8C:4001:DCB9:6D9A:B45D:BF76:304D (talk) 21:22, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose: "Yoü and I" does not disambiguate from "You and I". ---Another Believer _(Talk) 21:38, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose, the umlaut is just a stylization which is not allowed, not a different phonetic utterance of the song name. —IB ^{[ Poke ]} 07:39, 19 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose the stylization isn't consistent. In ictu oculi (talk) 08:04, 19 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose stylizations aren't supposed to be used as article titles Snuggums (talk / edits) 17:25, 19 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: stylizations are not outright prohibited, Mötley Crüe is an example. I would like to see sources showing whether the title with or without umlaut is more common in sources, that should dictate the article title. Though I think it would be easier for readers, if a move is made, to move to Yoü and I (Lady Gaga song) and redirect Yoü and I there. Chase (talk | contributions) 03:29, 24 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- The umlaut in Motley Crue is a part of the phonetic pronunciation of the group's name, just FYI. Not the case with "You and I". —IB ^{[ Poke ]} 04:54, 24 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  - Not so. As very clearly stated in the band's article, while trying to find a suitable name, Mars remembered an incident which occurred when he was playing with a band called White Horse, when one of the other band members called the group "a motley looking crew." He had remembered the phrase and later copied it down as Mottley Cru. After modifying the spelling slightly, "Mötley Crüe" was eventually selected as the band's name, with the stylistic decision suggested by Neil to add the two sets of metal umlauts supposedly inspired by the German beer Löwenbräu, which the members were drinking at the time.

Request for Name Change of Article

{{subst:RMassist| You and I (Lady Gaga song) | Yoü and I (Lady Gaga song) | reason = "Yoü and I" is the official title of the song rather than "You and I", therefore the "Yoü and I" spelling is not a stylization of "You and I", so the title of the article should be changed. } — Preceding unsigned comment added by ColeThack (talk • contribs) 05:17, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps I'm overlooking where the prose says this is a song about cross-dressing? ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:31, 13 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
