Naming[edit]

Is Maria Beatrice d'Este, Heiress of Modena really an appropriate name for this article? What about Maria Beatrice d'Este or Maria Beatrice of Este? Charles 07:44, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

She is almost always called Maria Beatrice Ricciarda d'Este [1]. "of Este" is non-existent. "d'Este" is much more common than "of Modena". Noel S McFerran 13:07, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Maria Beatrice Ricciarda d'Este should be the name of this article then. Charles 21:51, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Noel S McFerran 22:00, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
