As a major location for the 2016 Summer Olympics, I would expect this article will receive a strong rewrite in the coming years. I will try to do some research to expand on it when I have the chance, but I think that the section regarding the Pan American Football matches should be moved or removed. However, for now I'll leave that decision to a future editor. ThomasAndrewNimmo ( talk) 15:28, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

Estádio Olímpico João Havelange → João Havelange Stadium — According to the English names adopted by the Rio de Janeiro Organizing Committee of the Olympic Games (ROCOG), since these are the names that will be known internationally in the coming years. Felipe Menegaz 19:39, 8 December 2009 (UTC)
This article just changed its name from Estádio Olímpico João Havelange to Estádio Nilton Santos (Rio de Janeiro). There is no discussion of the name change in the article. In fact, the only mention of Havelange in the article now is about the trophy. Yet sources about its inception, construction and usages up through 2013 keep using Havelange's name. The explanation for the name change of what will be the primary stadium for the 2016 Summer Olympics should be in the first sentence of the lede, and probably an entire section should be devoted to explaining this name change barely a year before its usage, rather than to be completely ignored.

Estádio Nilton Santos (Rio de Janeiro) →
Estádio Olímpico João Havelange – Name hasn't changed per
this source (pt). Previous move was undiscussed per section above. There appears to be no English common name for the stadium.

As discussed above, apparently this is a naming rights situation involving one tenant of the greater stadium. I don't believe the stadium itself has changed names. Certainly the name situation requires clear discussion in the prose. Both names should be covered. The future prominence of this stadium, designated the primary Olympic stadium in 2016, puts its other usages superior to those of one football team. Thus wikipedia's naming should reflect the more common usage, as this stadium has been known since its construction and as it will be known to a worldwide audience.

Estádio Olímpico João Havelange →
Estádio Olímpico Nilton Santos – the stadium has been officially renamed per the Rio city government source
here (in Portuguese). As this is a recent move, there is not a common name used in English sources. The use of the full official name disambiguates the Rio stadium from a similarly-named stadium.
