– This is now the name, following the ILAE, see "International League Against Epilepsy classification and definition of epilepsy syndromes with onset at a variable age: position statement by the ILAE Task Force on Nosology and Definitions", https://doi.org/10.1111/epi.17240 Johnbod at ILAE (talk) 02:28, 21 March 2024 (UTC) — Relisting.

Certainly a DuckDuckGo search of Rasmussen syndrome yields the encephalitis overwhelmingly. I added the associated move for the skin condition of the same name. Rotideypoc41352 (talk · contribs) 01:49, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for that. The name change is recent (2022), so one would expect the old name to dominate in searches for a while. Johnbod at ILAE (talk) 01:53, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, now that I've had some time to sit and search, that's what I'm seeing.

DuckDuckGo query for "Rasmussen" "brain" seem to indicate the WP:COMMONNAME is still Rasmussen['s] encephalitis.
The query for "Rasmussen syndrome" shows the following:

Sources use both, usually along the lines of Rasmussen's encephalitis (RE) is a rare, chronic neurological disease...It is also called Rasmussen syndrome.
The primary topic of "Rasmussen syndrome" is definitely the neurological one, not the skin disease.

Pubmed results from 2019 (so the last five years) for "Rasmussen('s) syndrome" and "Rasmussen('s) encephalitis" are 20 and 146, respectively.

Those specific PubMed queries show both terms have been used since 1989 or so.
