The result of the move request was: Moved as proposed by Necrothesp. There is enough of a consensus that the more recent banker is primary for Evelyn de Rothschild, and I'll move the earlier one to Evelyn de Rothschild (born 1886). The disambig page is no longer needed per WP:TWODABS. — Amakuru ( talk) 18:02, 19 April 2016 (UTC)

Evelyn de Rothschild – His middle name does not seem to be widely used; the
Telegraph does not use it, and neither does the
BBC. Ideally his title would be included, since it is part of his name and he is commonly referred to by it, but Wikipedia policy disallows that for some reason.

We source the $20 billion number to "TheRichest.com" - which does not cite methodology or sources and which, I believe, exists mainly as SEO bait. In any event, the site gives no evidence for the assertion. Contrary evidence is mainly of the negative variety - the famous Forbes magazine list when searched for Rothschild does not list him, nor is he in the top 20 of the Sunday Times Rich List 2016. I'm not a subscriber, so I can't see where they do list him. As far as I can tell, it's very popular in anti-semitic circles to radically overestimate the wealth of the (quite large) Rothschild family as being in the trillions, and I can only assume that the numbers floating around the Internet were taken in by TheRichest.com. (I am not accusing them of bias, just of sloppy research.)
I won't make the edit myself out of an abundance of caution regarding COI issues - I've met Evelyn de Rothschild once. (He didn't inquire or mention his Wikipedia entry, and it was years ago.)-- Jimbo Wales ( talk) 19:26, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
