Sri Akrurji → Akrura — The title of the article should be changed to the original Sanskrit spelling. The present title, which is in Hindi can be mentioned in the lead sentence.Joy1963^Talk 07:37, 18 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Any evidence as to which is more common in English?--Kotniski (talk) 11:48, 26 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support: Akrura is a neutral spelling without undue honorifics like Sri and -ji. He is simply addressed as Akrura, outside the Vrishni community who deifies him. --Redtigerxyz ^Talk 16:15, 30 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
