- I oppose all these moves on procedural grounds. Per Wikipedia:Requested moves#Requesting controversial and potentially controversial moves, when "there has been any past debate about the best title for the page" it should only be moved after a requested move.

- I oppose them since they are, in fact, ambiguous. For example, Amadeus I, Count of Savoy is also known as Amadeo I in Spanish, and Felipe VI could refer to Felipe VI of Navarre (better known as Felipe IV of Spain). And let's not forget Alfonso XII de Castilla el pretendiente, who never became king. Neodop (talk) 21:24, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
