The text reads a bit awkwardly with her three-word name repeated multiple times. Typically, we'd use only a surname after the first reference. Naively, I'd assume that "Lady Bird" is functionally a surname in this context, but it's plausible that we should treat her whole name more like a mononym (or less plausibly "Bird" could be a surname). I did a brief survey of some of the sources, and they all seem to use her full name. (Significantly, Canadian Art uses her full name in a sentence where they use other people's surnames: "... organizers such as Couchie, Davis and Chief Lady Bird...") Does anyone know if she's indicated how her name should be used? If not, I'm happy to follow the sources on this and leave it unabbreviated throughout. pburka (talk) 21:44, 5 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
