Charles Worth → Charles Frederick Worth – This is a move back to the original title which was moved with no prior discussion on original talk page or this one. His House is called the "House of Worth" and he has always been know as Charles Fredrick Worth see [1] for example and [2]to see how other non museum sites also call him by his full name. [3] shows how the fashion industry and archives also use his full name. [4] shows how he is listed in other museums and [5] and [6]encyclopedias. To facilitate ease of searching there could be (in fact should have been) a Charles Worth redirect to Charles Frederick Worth. Edmund Patrick – confer12:25, 25 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support no rename. I honestly wouldn't know straightaway who "Charles Worth" was if you referred to him this way. He is ALWAYS referred to as Charles Frederick Worth in everything I've ever seen. [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12], [13], [14], [15], and literally hundreds of other books in Google Books - I've only gone with the museum publications and more serious books here. To be blunt, I honestly can't see why anyone would argue against this unless they were exceptionally obdurate. It's a complete and utter no-brainer. Keep the article title as it is.

Follow up comment - I see the Bourne Civic Society call their Local Celebrity "Charles Worth" and have a Charles Worth Gallery, but to be honest, that seems to be a small local history organization run by enthusiastic volunteers/amateurs. I'm actually surprised they call him Charles Worth, as while it's technically correct, that goes against almost everything else that has been published everywhere else since the 19th century...

Any additional comments:
no comment on the validity of one name over the other, but I have moved the talk page back to sync with the article page until the consensus is shown, and adjusted the move request name above to match. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom14:12, 25 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
