Talk:Tamar of Georgia

message: I do belive that the correct English name would be king Tamar. For example, we say Davit Mepe, which is King David in English, so we should use Tamara, rather than Tamar, I suppose. SosoMK 20:59, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: you mean King Tamar (considering that in georgian she is called [Tamar Mepe]). And i to dubble Soso about name of the article - Tamar of Georgia sould be King Tamar of Georgia. psycho_NIX 13:01, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's policy on article titles.
*Oppose No one is arguing that she was not called Tamar the Great but Tamar of Georgia is the more common form used in sources. Overall it is ill advice to use nicknames to denote monarchs of Georgia due to their obscurity to English audiences; the "of Georgia" tell us more about the person than the nickname that many might even get. The nickname is still shown in the article. --The Emperor's New Spy (talk) 10:57, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

text: "Tamar" "queen" gets over 51,000 results, so why don't we rename this to Tamar, Queen of Georgia similar to Diana, Princess of Wales? Please see the VIAF page for Tamar. "Tamar, Queen of Georgia" is what the Library of Congress uses . --Երևանցի talk  19:24, 2 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Tamar was NOT the Queen. She was one of the greatest monarchs and was called as KING Tamar (თამარ მეფე tamar mepe). Jorjadze (talk) 18:00, 3 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: A female king? I have no idea what the word "mepe" means and it is quite irrelevant in English Wikipedia. Read my comment over. "Tamar, Queen of Georgia" is the form that the Library of Congress uses.  --Երևանցի talk  18:31, 3 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Current discussion is to move it to Tamar the Great. Do you support it or oppose? Jorjadze (talk) 18:36, 3 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text:  I'm leaning towards oppose, because Google Books results has more "Tamar of Georgia" than "Tamar the Great". --Երևանցի talk  18:44, 3 November 2013 (UTC)
