The result of the proposal was move per request. No evidence presented, just assertion but a Google News search indicates Nurse Maude is is hundreds of times more common in reliable English language sources.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 00:35, 22 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Sibylla Maude → Nurse Maude – She was (and continues to be) commonly known as Nurse Maude, which is further reinforced by the fact that the nursing organisation founded by her continues to operate in Canterbury. I'm uncertain, though, whether this complies with naming conventions; I certainly have never seen an article title containing 'Nurse' or 'Captain' or some such. Hence I thought I'd put this up for discussion. Schwede66 20:41, 15 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Support Is most common name, and there seems to be precedent with Mother Teresa. -- haminoon (talk) 09:12, 16 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Support. A New Zealand precedent is Aunt Daisy. Paora (talk) 09:59, 16 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Support. It is the name by which she is much better known, and it complies with the naming conventions at WP:TITLESINTITLES. Nurg (talk) 08:04, 17 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
