Talk:Thomas Elliot (New Earth)

Name use (Tommy vs. Thomas)
Currently this article bounces back and forth a bit in discussing Hush, referring to him alternately as "Tommy" and "Thomas". No doubt this is the result of multiple editors having different takes on the subject. There's nothing inherently wrong with that, even, as both names are correct.

However, the use of "Thomas" gets a bit confusing in the sections where Tommy and Bruce's childhood friendship is discussed, because Bruce's father Dr. Thomas Wayne is also involved, so "Thomas" isn't entirely unambiguous.

Because of that concern, I think for maximum clarity it would be best to refer to Hush exclusively as "Tommy", to differentiate him from Thomas Wayne. So, consider this a heads-up and call for discussion; if anyone has any thoughts on the matter or disagrees, please speak up. If no-one does, or the response is agreement with what I've laid out here, I'll probably go ahead and make that change some time soon. I'll try to keep the changes in a single, standalone edit for easiest reversion. (Or maybe two edits, one just for the sections where Thomas Wayne is also mentioned, and a separate one for other parts of the article.) -- FeRDNYC (talk) 07:20, July 20, 2016 (UTC)
