Her name is RANI RAM MUKERJI

I provided the relevant reliable sources establishing the fact of her full name. being Rani Ram Mukerji. so what's the consensus AlphaVictorDelta0107 (talk) 10:57, 16 May 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Ram is her father's name. In India, people's first name is often followed by the father's name, but this isn't what WP does. Shahid • ^Talk2me 14:01, 16 May 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@Shshshsh Her legal name is Rani Ram Mukerji, according to court cases. AlphaVictorDelta0107 (talk) 14:06, 16 May 2026 (UTC)[reply]

We don't use court cases as sources. The names we use are those reported by the individuals. Shahid • ^Talk2me 23:47, 16 May 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@AlphaVictorDelta0107: Since a discussion is going on, you have to wait for the consensus instead of edit warring / restoring your version which has been flagged per WP:BRD. If possible, find a WP:SECONDARY source stating her full name as "Rani Ram Mukerji" and post it here. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 16:46, 17 May 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@Fylindfotberserk OK, on it. AlphaVictorDelta0107 (talk) 16:49, 17 May 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@Fylindfotberserk "Rani Ram Mukerji". The Company Check. AlphaVictorDelta0107 (talk) 16:53, 17 May 2026 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't seem to be a reliable source. The about us section is vague as far as their background as well as fact checking ability of the portal is concerned. Please find a reliable secondary source. A news or a magazine article. I believe an affidavit, passport or self-identification will also do since even if primary, it would not be WP:SPS in my opinion. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 18:08, 17 May 2026 (UTC)[reply]
