Added the "FC" would not only have this page be named the same way as if is officially but it would also have this page be named the same way as we have most association football clubs. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 17:13, 15 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support per usual football club naming format. Number 5 7 22:49, 15 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support standard naming convention. Coderzombie (talk) 03:24, 16 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose What naming convention? The current name is more WP:PRECISE, which is policy. Football clubs should follow WP:NCCORP and avoid suffixes like "F.C." except when needed for WP:NATURAL disambiguation. Using them otherwise goes against WP:COMMONNAME. You wouldn't hear many people say, "Oh, I'm going to the Kerala Blasters FC match", and secondary sources, such as sport journalism, rarely uses such suffixes either. See also Wikipedia:Official names. --BDD (talk) 15:54, 16 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Don't see why you are bringing WP:Official names into this? Kerala Blasters FC is the official name and the most commonly used. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 16:22, 16 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support - as standard naming convention for football clubs. Giant Snowman 16:19, 16 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support - consensus is that football clubs have FC or the appropriate abbreviation unless there is a clear reason not to, not the other way round. Fenix down (talk) 09:51, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
