Myanmar Royal Dragon Army → Burma National Revolutionary ArmyBurma National Revolutionary Army – This is their current name and they've had it longer. Charles Essie (talk) 20:16, 12 August 2026 (UTC) — Relisting. Thanks! —1isall (talk | contribs) 20:56, 19 August 2026 (UTC)

Comment It being the longest current name isn't necessarily a reason to move. Can you provide more evidence per WP:NAMECHANGE. For context, the original merge happened with the discussion that the group is far more notable for the period that they were MRDA rather than BNRA. Of course, that may have changed but I'm not sure if it has. EmeraldRange (talk/contribs) 20:25, 12 August 2026 (UTC)

If you Google both names, pretty much everything referencing the Myanmar Royal Dragon Army after the name change mentions that it changed its name to the Burma National Revolutionary Army. Charles Essie (talk) 20:40, 12 August 2026 (UTC)

Since it was relisted, I will comment that simply saying "google it" doesn't give me confidence that there is a case here for WP:COMMONNAME EmeraldRange (talk/contribs) 01:36, 20 August 2026 (UTC)
