County of Minburn No. 27County of Minburn – Proposed name is precise enough to identify the subject, so no need for the additional No. 27. County of Minburn redirects here so it's not needed to disambiguate. Wug·a·po·des05:51, 30 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose - It will go against the consistent format for the other 69 counties, making it an odd one out. I suggest keeping the name as is to avoid confusion. If there is a desire to rename *every* county, then that is a separate discussion altogether. Mattximus (talk) 19:03, 30 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Although many of Alberta counties have decided to remove the number from their name, this one has not. Searching sources, I see there is a disparity whether to call it with or without the number. I think the sources Wikipedia would use to choose a name that best describes the level of governance, primary use the number, and the sources that would use a nick name or something for branding, primarily exclude the number. 117Avenue (talk) 11:55, 31 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
