Supreme Court of the Republic of China → Supreme Court of Taiwan – Per WP:COMMONNAME, Taiwan is the main article of the topic. We include ROC history prior to 1949 in that article, and that is explained in context sufficiently in the introduction and elsewhere. For this topic, the convention has long been “Supreme Court of [COUNTRY]”, since the official name for these organs is generally “Supreme Court” only (excluding country name). That is the case for Taiwan.
Supreme Court of Taiwan or Taiwanese Supreme Court are very much common usage in reliable sources (news or academia). For the same reasons we prefer Taiwan as the main article name per common usage (and same for other countries like Supreme Court of the United States vs. United States of America), we should use it as part of this article name.
