• John Bramston, the elder → John Bramston the Elder
• John Bramston, the younger → John Bramston the Younger

– Per WP:NCPDAB, we use the more common style " the Elder", not ", the elder". In reply to the user who reverted my move earlier, the old title will redirect, so the pipe trick will still work. --Relisted. George Ho (talk) 01:31, 20 October 2014 (UTC) —innotata 01:29, 12 October 2014 (UTC)

• Support per WP:NCP examples for this type of disambiguation: "When there is a usual way of distinguishing two people of the same name, use it. Examples:... Pliny the Elder and Pliny the Younger." Dekimasuよ! 16:54, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
