I suggest moving the article to Dovmont. That's how he is known in every primary source mentioning his name. -- Ghirla -трёп- 07:16, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Article should be moved to Dovmont. Person realy did his "career" in Russia. In Russia mostly known under Dovmont, compare with Daumantas. In English results the same - Dovmont is much more popular compared with Daumantas, Pskov. + Pskov is necesseary because Daumantas could be used simply as Lithuanian name, look Daumantas results shows such persons: Juozas Daumantas, Daumantas Matulis, Juozas Luksa-Daumantas etc. 81.7.98.250 ( talk) 13:14, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
Have to oppose to current proposal. Initial comparison of presented sources can be hardly be called correct, as searching rules are differ. Hardly, an argument that Russian Cyrillic writing prefer Russian variant name over Lithuanian variant in Cyrillic is crucial to English encyclopedia. Also, clear attribution to name by adding Pskov or Nalsia should be added, IMO. (everybody knows is not argument as well). As we have township part which corresponds with Russian name Dovmont. In IMO important aspect to naming issue is that Dovmont is translation of Lithuanian name Daumantas. Slavs do no have diphthong -au-, and it changes into -o-, -ov-, and by default Lithuanian endings like -as- are being dropped. Probably solution could be to use Daumantas in Lithuanian affairs and Dovmant in Russian ones. M.K. ( talk) 14:04, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
