Move article title back to Andrea (The Walking Dead)?

The request to rename this article to Andrea (The Walking Dead) has been carried out.

If the page title has consensus, be sure to close this discussion using {{subst:RM top|'''page moved'''.}} and {{subst:RM bottom}} and remove the {{Requested move/dated|…}} tag, or replace it with the {{subst:Requested move/end|…}} tag.

Andrea Harrison → Andrea (The Walking Dead) – With this edit, Goldenboy moved the article to Andrea Harrison based on a video game (The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct) revealing her last name as Harris. And here, he added a citation for the name change. This move (the article title change) is a clear-cut violation of the WP:Common name policy. Name-wise, Andrea is clearly most well known simply by her first name. And I don't think we should be giving WP:Undue weight to what a video game states to be her last name. This move, because it has a chance of being contested (like I am doing now), should have gone through the Wikipedia:Requested moves process; that page states, "Use this process if there is any reason to believe that a move would be contested." Based on that, I would have moved the article back and then noted the WP:Common name policy here on the talk page. But I don't think that Goldenboy is familiar with the WP:Common name policy, and I didn't want to take the risk of him simply moving the article back to "Andrea Harrison" again. So I have started this move discussion instead. I will alert the WikiProjects that this talk page is tagged with to this discussion. From what I can see, the Andrea (The Walking Dead) article should follow the same path as the Faith (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) article. Faith's last name was revealed in a role-playing game and has been used for subsequent material relating to the Buffy the Vampire Slayer series, but she is mostly commonly simply known as Faith and therefore that is the title of her Wikipedia article.
