Mahmudullah RiyadMahmudullah – per the Cricinfo Ref Vin09(talk) 10:36, 6 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - If its not possible, then his full name as Mohammad Mahmudullah can be replaced with it.--Vin09(talk) 10:37, 6 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per nom, this is the WP:COMMONNAME for this individual. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 13:02, 6 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose while মাহমুদুল্লাহ without রিয়াদ might be enough to identify this cricketer to cricket fans without Riyad, he's still the full both names on Bangla wp., and their are variants of the first name. In ictu oculi (talk) 09:33, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I can't read/translate those other languages, so I can't comment on that aspect. I do however watch a lot of cricket, and I've never seen him refered to anything else other than Mahmudullah, not just on Cricinfo, but matches I've watched him play on TV. Maybe that last bit has a twinge of WP:OR, but it's def. the more common usage of his name. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 19:12, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support He is referred to almost exclusively by the name Mahmudullah, so I agree with Lugnuts. Galobtter (talk) 14:33, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
