Richard Corney Grain → Corney Grain – Clear WP:COMMONAME. Scores of his songs are listed as Corney Grain, newspapers refered to him as Corney Grain, and the BBC reminiscences of his society entertaining list him as Corney Grain. Corney Grain also gives more Google results (508,000 results) than Richard (308,000). Corney Grain was his stage name at the time, and it's a clear common name compared to Richard. Thank you very much. Modern Major General I quote the fights historical 22:30, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
