Names → Names (disambiguation) – Per WP:PLURAL, the clear primary topic of the plural term "Names" is the singular, Name. There are, of course, many names in many cultures, and they are often discussed in the plural - in fact, the word "names" is used in the article Name over 40 times to discuss the subject of that article. Turning to the five purportedly ambiguous topics on this page, two of them include in their names the definite article "The"; the third has the word "Hill" as part of its name; the fourth has the phrase "The infernal" as part of its name; and the last has no article at all, and nothing in the article You Are Free indicates that it is particularly important even in the context of this relatively obscure album. In short, not only is there no other topic with a realistic claim to primacy over this title; there is no other topic with a real claim to the title itself. bd2412 T 01:07, 19 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support, lol, "Names" should be the name for "name". Gregkaye ✍♪ 17:17, 19 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support - Yeah, most people looking for "names" are going to be looking for the main concept.--Yaksar (let's chat) 22:31, 19 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
