LANcoLanco (band) – LANco is an improper way of stylization to me, when "LAN" is for "Lancaster", so I feel that it would be better as "Lanco". JE98 (talk) 15:57, 15 September 2017 (UTC)--Relisting.usernamekiran(talk) 13:45, 23 September 2017 (UTC)

  • Oppose for now - the name of the band appears to have been stylized as LANco initially - [1][2] (therefore it is wrong to say that it is an improper stylization), however now LANco, LANCO and Lanco are used in various articles and websites - [3][4][5][6]. I'd say wait and see which one becomes the dominant one first before changing. Hzh (talk) 14:46, 22 September 2017 (UTC)
  • Support per nom's rationale. The caps are pure style, inconsistent with the interpretation, which is for Lancaster & Co, not an acronym. Since Lanco is among the styles is use, as Hzh shows, we might as well use it, per MOS:TM. Dicklyon (talk) 00:00, 24 September 2017 (UTC)
