Title of Article - Name of victim incorrect[edit]

Great write up but it seems this page should be retitled/moved to reflect proper naming conventions for the deceased.

Her full given name was Bích Câu. Bich is not a middle name. Her middle name was actually Thị. Referring to her as Cau Bich is the same as calling someone named William liamWil.

Many English-language newspapers reported this incident with her name written incorrectly.

For reference: here is an article from a Vietnamese newspaper that demonstrates the standard way to address her by her first name:

The article has been renamed to "Shooting of Trần Thị Bích Câu", but I'm not sure that's correct either. She had been living in the U.S. for several years by the time of the shooting, so the title should refer to her by her anglicized name, as with any article about a Vietnamese American. – Minh Nguyễn ^💬 22:05, 8 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I've named the article to "Shooting of Bich Cau Thi Tran" and added a number of sources to confirm the anglicized names used by both the Vietnamese community in San Jose and the general public. – Minh Nguyễn ^💬 22:47, 8 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
