Francis Key Howard is more commonly referred to as Frank Key Howard. The Library of Congress Name Authority File for him is: Howard, F. K. (Frank Key), 1826-1872^[1]. Thus someone searching for Francis Key Howard as an author might not discover Frank Key Howard's most known texts. See the discrepancy between the two: Francis Key Howard^[2] and Frank Key Howard^[3]. Fourteen months in American bastiles^[4] is his most well-known work, for instance.

I'm suggesting the article title to be changed from Francis Key Howard to Frank Key Howard. Before completing a page move I wanted to bring this up with other editors. Please share any thoughts or concerns. Thanks! DC Elliott (talk) 14:21, 9 July 2014 (UTC)DC_Elliott[reply]
