Name: Candar dynasty

Kindly note the reasons for the name update have been featured in all page move edit descriptions.

To clarify, the term "Isfendiyarid" only covers a minority portion of the dynasty's / beylik's history, disregarding several generations beforehand, which are clearly mentioned in the article.

Moreover, "Isfendiyarid" only covers a specific period which is the Beylik of Sinop, and is therefore not applicable as a title for the entire dynasty, which as advised, this article covers at length.

Last but not least, it is important to note that the dynasty is referred to principally by the name Candar (the name of its founder) in the Enclyopedia Britannica, Enclyclopedia of Islam and wiki:tr, all of which must have a bearing on the name applied to the wiki:en article.

In the event that you are not in agreement with this name change, I would be very happy to listen to your reasons and discuss further, and reach a compromise either way. After all, this is the very essence of cooperation that Wikipedia has been founded upon.

Many thanks in advance.
