The result of the move request was: no consensus. per discussion.

Nava Barak-Singer → ? – The name should be either "Singer" or "Zinger", let's discuss which is better. Midrashah (talk) 16:43, 4 August 2021 (UTC) — Relisting. Muhibm0307 (talk) 01:43, 18 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]


Note: Her last name in Hebrew is זינגר, but when I translated the article I wasn't sure whether in English it is Singer or Zinger. Waiting for more opinions.--Midrashah (talk) 15:58, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • It appears "Singer" is the most common spelling of her husband's surname in English sources, so I think the current title is probably the best. There are hardly any English sources that call her anything but "Nava Barak", but they all appear to pre-date her second marriage and name change. Number 57 19:44, 7 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
