Name vs. Title

Necrothesp, referring to the practice of wives of younger sons of duke's taking the feminine form of their husband's title as an outdated mode of address that few do any more seems biased to me. While I'm fine with using her name before her title in the lede, I did not realize that was Wikipedia policy. Could you point me in the right direction so that I can read up on this? -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 14:50, 12 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There seems to be a lack of consistency on Wikipedia regarding this issue. For example, Lady Nicholas Windsor, Lady Colin Campbell, and Lady Henry Somerset are all introduced in their ledes by their titles (from marriage) wherest Sophie Winkleman and Lucy Cavendish, also wives of Lords, are referred to by their Christian names. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 22:36, 12 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If you put "née" or "born" that implies that their given names are no longer their names, which is clearly utterly ludicrous. Her name is not Gerald. It is Emma. Her name is Emma Georgina Egerton Fitzalan-Howard. Lady Gerald is merely a style she uses. Of course it should appear in the first line (as I put it), but her names should not be relegated to brackets that imply she has changed them. -- Necrothesp (talk) 07:52, 15 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
