Naming convention: How about Riaz?

This name of his is not likely to be confused with the former PM, also named Imran Khan. The former PM is directly involved in what Riaz has been calling attention to, and so they will continue to be talked about together. I suggest using Riaz on his Wikipedia article. I have seen The Express Tribune do this, for example: "In the video, Riaz can be heard saying that he was coming to the federal capital to get bail from the Islamabad High Court (IHC)."

There's a comment in the page move that might be reason against this proposal: "The subject, including his social media handles, refers to himself usually without the middle name." Louis Waweru Talk 03:20, 14 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please comment why this page should not be redirected to his real name M.Ashraf333 (talk) 05:16, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: WP:COMMONNAME is the standard used for titles, and I can see him named both with and without the "Riaz" in reliable sources. Interestingly, both his Twitter and Facebook profiles are titled "Imran Khan", with the full name below, like this article. But not on his YouTube channel. So it's not clear to me yet which title is better. Storchy (talk) 12:16, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support. It's better to use the individual's name as a natural disambiguator here than the individual's profession as a parenthetical disambiguator. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 22:29, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
