Topic: Those character names are confusing (John Smith)

Posted under General

This character name tag doesn't need to be renamed: john_smith_(kimmykun).
This character name tag from a Disney movie needs to be named from john_smith to john_smith_(pocahontas) because it's confusing.

Leave this tag alone: john_smith_(kimmykun).
Rename this tag from john_smith to john_smith_(pocahontas).

Considering that John Smith is a rather common name and that we have tags for three John Smiths on the site, a disambiguation is undoubtedly in order. My question is if we should use john_smith_(pocahontas) or john_smith_(disney) for the Disney character. I'm actually kind of curious how we'd hypothetically tag the actual, historical John Smith of Jamestown fame.

I made an implication request at topic #59741.
