Name[edit]

Wikipedia’s manual of style states that, in Wikipedia, company names should be written with an initial capital letter, even if the company themselves write it all-lowercase. A “styled as” note can be put in the introduction explaining how the company style the name. Mauls (talk) 10:56, 27 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

They should change their manual of style to reflect modern times. The name abrdn is not "styled as" abrdn it is abrdn.--Samesawed (talk) 13:22, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You are welcome to seek a change to the manual of style but any changes are likely reflect community consensus rather than "modern times". See MOS:TMLOWER. Dormskirk (talk) 15:21, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Abrdn[edit]

The name of a company is a proper noun. A proper noun begins with a capital letter. That certain people and companies use ungrammatical constructions does not make them correct. 81.168.78.33 (talk) 21:54, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
