[edit] Disuan or Damrong?

The prince was known most of his life as "Prince Disuankumaan". He was given the title "Damrong Rajanubhab" much later in his life. However, the latter became much more well-known, and most people would recognise him by that name only. I've therefore left the name of "Prince Damrong" in place in this edition, even before this title was conferred upon him. Any opinion? --Jakris 03:25, 6 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I guess it would be quite confusing if the name changes in the middle of the article, so IMHO it's fine to use the most well known name throughout the article, but of course mention other names and name changes. Thus I think your additions are OK the way you did them. andy 15:51, 6 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Please don't move this article, as stated above he much more well-known by the name "Prince Damrong" or "Damrong Rajanubhab", but only very few may known his birth name. andy 21:08, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
