Joseph M. McCormick → Medill McCormick – I believe we should move it to this name because this is the name he went by. Similar to how we title Mitt Romney's page as "Mitt Romney" rather than "Willard Mitt Romney" SecretName101 (talk) 01:06, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nomination and per WP:COMMONNAME. Subject's full name was Joseph Medill McCormick, but he was not referenced as "Joseph M." The name engraved upon his gravestone is "MEDILL McCORMICK". —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 02:39, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
