- Comment: Looks like Nazmul Islam is a completely unrelated person. Suggest move to Nazmul Islam (diplomat) instead. JIP | Talk 11:06, 27 March 2025 (UTC)
- Comment. Honorific? Isn't it an abbreviation of Muhammad? (Viz. the odd references you'll see to Yunus as "Md. Yunus".) Moscow Mule (talk) 14:59, 27 March 2025 (UTC)
- : The current titling doesn't work: {{Tq|Mohammad Nazmul Islam (born 21 March 1991), also known as Nazmul Apu[1] is a Bangladeshi first-class, List A and Twenty20 cricketer}}. Move to Nazmul Islam (diplomat) and move Nazmul Islam to Nazmul Islam (cricketer) and create a disambiguation page at the base name. * Pppery * it has begun... 15:20, 27 March 2025 (UTC)
- Oppose as cricketer Nazmul Islam is commonly known as this name (WP:COMMONNAME applies). Also, as per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, only the cricketer should have the current title, so we don't need to rename "Nazmul Islam". We only should rename the article of the diplomat Md. Nazmul Islam to Nazmul Islam (diplomat). And "Md." is not honorific, it is abbreviation of the name "Muhammad" and many people use the abbreviation in their name. It is common and not new. So "individual people shouldn't use honourifics unless they're an integral part of the person's common name" doesn’t work here. Mehedi Abedin 20:52, 29 March 2025 (UTC)

- Md. is not an honorific, it is a contraction for Muhammad. And, both "Nazmul Islam" and "Md. Nazmul Islam" are ambiguous terms, as both persons have the same name. Hence, both persons should be disambiguated with parenthesis. What comes before the parenthesis should be determined according to the common name. —CX Zoom[he/him] (let's talk • {C•X}) 17:01, 12 April 2025 (UTC)
