Isn't her name Natalia Kusemdova-Bashta?
Legend of 14 (

Not when she was first elected, it wasn't. She only married Mina Bashta in 2022, after having already been in office for several years, and even after she married him there's still an unsteady mixture of sources referring to her as Kusendova-Bashta and sources that still refer to her as just Kusendova —
this source, for instance, postdates the wedding but still refers to her as just Kusendova. And even her own social media presence, in fact, is still just Kusendova on some platforms while being Kusendova-Bashta on others. So a page move could be considered here if somebody wants to actually initiate a full page move discussion in which we could hash out a consensus, but the sources are still inconsistent enough that it would have to be discussed, and wouldn't be in any sense an instant slamdunk that could just be moved on a whim on the grounds that the existing title was objectively "wrong".

Requested move 22 March 2024
The following is a closed discussion of a
requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a
move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Natalia Kusendova →
Natalia Kusendova-Bashta – Procedural nomination, as article subject married in 2022. This isn't a clearcut slamdunk, however; she appears to not have immediately started using her hyphenated married name right away, as a government media release from
2023 still refers to her as just Kusendova, but another one from
just a few days ago does say Kusendova-Bashta. She's also had virtually no media coverage of note since the
2022 Ontario general election, when she was still just Kusendova — but
her own website gives her name as Kusendova-Bashta in text even though its url is still just Kusendova; her profile on the Legislative Assembly site is now at
Kusendova-Bashta; and if we go by her own social networking presence, she's hyphenated Kusendova-Bashta on Xitter and LinkedIn, and Kusendova Bashta without a hyphen on Instagram, but still just Kusendova on Facebook. So this would require some discussion because the signals are still a bit mixed, and can't really just be moved immediately without discussion.

Support Kusendova-Bashta seems to be the version that is used most right now, and seems to be the name that she goes by.
