Real Name[edit]
If his real name is KP Pete, then should the article be moved there? I suppose he is better known as "King K", but his real name seems better fit for an article title. --YellowYoshi398 19:14, 17 March 2007 (EDT)

Name[edit]

- If the above section is anything to go by, it was moved to this name for an outdated reason ("Full names are more canonical than nicknames" - we haven't based our priorities and hierarchies off of any so-called "canon" for more than a decade at this point). I'd say go right ahead with a move. S o m e t h i n g o n e !
