This name should be used throughout the article, other than a brief mention of the official name.We may, eventually, change the name, as we did at Mumbai, after about 10 years, but other articles, such as Bangalore are still under their "English" names, as this is what English readers recognize. - Thank you - Arjayay (talk) 20:05, 17 February 2020 (UTC)

replies: text: Faizabad division →  – Google Search engine results are very close to both names, like for "faizabad division" it is around 11,50,000 and for "ayodhya division" 10,90,000. So if we consider "news" sections results, we can clearly see the difference in common name, for "faizabad division" it is around 4000 but for "ayodhya division" it is around 20000. so clearly we can see what should be the article's title according to WP:COMMONNAME.

text: Support one little update to my above data, i have checked recently the random search results again, so for "faizabad division" it is now 11,00,000 and for "ayodhya division" it is 11,30,000. so now my above argument is more strong that common is "ayodhya division". thank you.
