– Seems to be known without the 'R.'.[https://www.belfercenter.org/person/nicholas-burns][https://www.cnbc.com/video/2018/07/16/i-think-trump-walked-into-a-russian-trap-this-morning-says-former-us-nato-ambassador.html] Unreal7 (talk) 18:22, 16 July 2018 (UTC)

  • That by itself does not necessarily render this the primary topic of the name. Is there any evidence to this effect? bd2412 T 03:01, 17 July 2018 (UTC)
  • Oppose per WP:NATURAL. Although sometimes the R is dropped, he is also very well known as R. Nicholas Burns [http://bcm.bc.edu/issues/winter_2003/ft_diplomat.html], [https://web.archive.org/web/20080119133558/http://www.state.gov/secretary/rm/2008/01/99478.htm], [https://www.belfercenter.org/publication/qa-nicholas-burns], [https://georgewbush-whitehouse.archives.gov/government/nburns-bio.html], [https://www.c-span.org/person/?rburns]. Since the pageviews are almost identical with the actor [https://tools.wmflabs.org/pageviews/?project=en.wikipedia.org&platform=all-access&agent=user&range=latest-90&pages=Nicholas_Burns|R_nicholas_burns|R._Nicholas_Burns|Nicholas_Burns_(actor)] (with the actor's being slightly higher last year), there is no obvious primary topic.
