Alberto Costa Pereira → Costa Pereira – The WP:COMMONNAME of the footballer is always "Costa Pereira", always omitting his legal first name "Alberto" and also the participle "De". See every single reference and external link on the page (except NFT which is user generated, and one link that mentions his full legal name Alberto da Costa Pereira after introducing him as "Costa Pereira"). He did not ever use his full legal name professionally. This list for example gives the first name for many footballers but not Costa Pereira, see here. References here: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12.
This is not the same case as players like "Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain" as references often used their legal first name. Costa Pereira is effectively his nickname, and the current title of the page is a name hardly ever used for the player - see for example his death announcement.
