Alexandr or Alexandre?

[edit]

The title of the article has no E on the end, while the first line of the article does. Someone find the correct one and fix it lol. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.254.154.41 (talk) 21:13, 21 November 2011 (UTC) [reply]

Well, the page has been moved to match first line. Pierre-Alexandr is likely how it was spelled in French [1] while it was later Anglicize to add the "e" at the end, and not a carless misspelling as indicated on the page move. A slimaler situation occurred at Aleksandr Burmistrov. While the page is now at the more Common name of Pierre-Alexandre Parenteau, I have to wonder if it shouldn't have been moved to P. A. Parenteau since that is what he is called on broadcasts of Islanders games.--Mo Rock...Monstrous (leech44) 18:02, 29 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Burmistrov is, what, Russian. I can't imagine a Gallic name missing an E like that. And I did do a cursory Google search to see what came up -- Alexandre was there. Vranak (talk) 23:53, 29 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
