As per WP:NCP shouldn't this article be named just Franis Blackwood, minus the middle name. Cheers Nomadtales 05:56, 3 July 2007 (UTC) reply

Nup. See WP:NCP#Middle names - abbreviations of names. Anonymous Dissident ^Talk 05:59, 3 July 2007 (UTC) reply

It all depends on what he was/is most often known as. Is + middle name the case here. I have no idea, but it would be good to keep it shorter than longer. Nomadtales 06:24, 3 July 2007 (UTC) reply

It appears that longer was what he was most commonly called. Thanks, Anonymous Dissident ^Talk 06:27, 3 July 2007 (UTC) reply
