Akhil Amar → Akhil Reed Amar – The article was most recently renamed "Akhil Amar" in 2015 due to "common usage". From 2006-11 it was "Akhil Reed Amar", 2011-13 "Akhil Amar", 2013-15 with "Reed" again, and finally "Akhil Amar" since 2015. However, "Akhil Reed Amar" is the more common name; it has nearly 272,000 google results compared to "Akhil Amar" with only 39,000. Additionally, all of his books include his middle name in the author field. Arbor to SJ (talk) 03:11, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom. Far more commonly cited using his full name. Station1 (talk) 04:25, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
