Battle Of or Battle Off?

[edit]

I came to this page a bit randomly and know nothing about this subject so pardon a stupid question but is this typically called the "Battle of Barbados" or Battle Off Barbados"? The title is currently "Off" but the first paragraph and infobox both use "Of". Seems to me they should either agree or have some explanation of the difference? Looking at the history I see a couple attempts at page moves and reverts and even a suggestion that it be discussed on the Talk Page but I see no discussion. Anybody want to try to clarify?

I would say Battle off Barbados or even Action off Barbados; Battle of Barbados would imply that it was about the conquest of the island or a much bigger naval action. Eastfarthingan (talk) 07:33, 8 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
