Found and copied a very good list at Bryan Nelson the parallel (but substantially different) article in German Wikipedia. 7&6=thirteen ( ☎) 01:47, 14 September 2015 (UTC) reply

As the German Wikipedia article exemplifies, and as the title on five of six lead sources in our article show too, often he was identified by his Middle name. Maybe we need to put a hatnote on the other article? 7&6=thirteen ( ☎) 15:20, 14 September 2015 (UTC) reply
