Requested move 10 March 2019

Not moved. After extended time for discussion, no opinion has been expressed from which to determine an appropriate page target. I would suggest that the nom make their own determination and boldly move the page, since there appears to be a lack of interest in the question in the community. bd2412 T 20:23, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Emma Kaili Metcalf Beckley Nakuina → ? – Based on what I read, and as I commented to the main author at the GAN "Emma Kaili Metcalf Beckley Nakuina" is not the most common name for Nakuina (that name is mentioned by a couple sources). The most neutral name would be "Emma Nakuina", but as the main author said (and I agree) "Calling her simply Emma Nakuina would be wrong given the importance of her first marriage and her own maiden name." Other alternatives are Emma Metcalf Beckley Nakuina and Emma Beckley Nakuina. If I had to choose a name it would be either Emma Beckley Nakuina or Emma Metcalf Beckley Nakuina, as those were the names she used the most. With that said, I disagree with the "Kaʻilikapuolono 'Kaili'" name as it is infrequent. © Tbhotch^™ (en-2.5). 20:31, 10 March 2019 (UTC)--Relisted. – Ammarpad (talk) 08:23, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
