On 29 January 2024, it was proposed that this article be moved from Faisal bin Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa to Faisal bin Hamad Al Khalifa. The result of the discussion was moved.

Could someone change 'ibn' to 'bin' in the title?

The common convention in Arabic is when both the person's name and the father's name is given, to use 'bin' (e.g. Faisal bin Hamad, that is, Faisal, son of Hamad), but when a person is referred to by the patronymic, to use 'ibn' (e.g. Ibn Hamad, that is, the son of Hamad). I do not know how to edit the title; I would appreciate if someone more knowledgeable could do this. Mideastwhoswho (talk) 12:52, 12 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'd reckon the patronymic uses "Bin" not more rarely than "Ibn". If I understand it correctly, "ibn" is the Arabic spelling, whereas "bin" is the Arabic pronounciation... СЛУЖБА (talk) 20:43, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Faisal bin Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa → Faisal bin Hamad Al Khalifa – The articles on his father and his grandfather use only the first name followed by the father's name. Векочел (talk) 22:09, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support per consistency with other members of the house. 2601:249:9301:D570:A8DA:4E39:EB5A:7321 (talk) 00:43, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
