It shouldn't be about convincing but presenting arguments.  Finally some apparent support for the Hilton suggestion but I think it is wise to note:   
 *The first reference states: "" This, I think, is at least a significant part of his legacy. 
 *The second reference only makes one use of Hilton and that within comments 
 *Usage in the third reference is in a later paragraph to say: ""  This seems to me to be a reference to name as given at birth and not to commonly used designations used in life.  I could be wrong but I think that there may be a tendency in obituaries to make use of this type of reference.
