New enough at time of submission; well long enough [9.6k chars.]; I'm not sure "Gay Times" counts as an unbiased WP:RS generally but presumably they're trustworthy enough with a direct quote from the artist using that title. QPQ was unclear which ALT was really intended (ALT1 or ALT2) but that's not disprobative for this. Minimal copyvio per Earwig, just things given as direct quotes. (Other editors may trim that down in the future as needless but no rules violation.) Hook has correct pronoun per article preference, for those who might wince at singular they. No image to review. — LlywelynII 14:46, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

Bambie thugs real name is Linnea Lagerqvist. 193.120.213.0 (talk) 19:38, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
- Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. M.Bitton (talk) 19:47, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
- Per MOS:DEADNAME we do not include the former names of trans people unless they were notable under them - see Caitlyn Jenner as an example. Bambie was not, so there is no scope for inclusion. ser! (chat to me - see my edits) 19:50, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
Subject name
In relation to the above edit request, how sure are we that Bambie Thug's non-stage name is Cuntry Ray Robinson? Currently the article cites a blog, which likely wouldn't pass WP:RS. I know there's sources published after this article was created that state this, for example the Irish Independent, but I can't seem to find any reliable sources published prior to 24 January 2024 that mention it.
Only reason I'm wary is because of citogenesis, where we've published something as a fact, and other reliable sources have therefore republished it as a fact. Is there a reliable source that I'm missing that states this, published prior to the creation of our article? Sideswipe9th (talk) 20:10, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
- For what it’s worth I don’t think this is a case of citogenesis, they’re credited in their Eurovision song under that name, and in a tweet they mention it. ser! (chat to me - see my edits) 21:18, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
- I have taken the liberty of changing the name to Bambie Ray Robinson, which is the singer's real name according to this RTÉ article. If "Cuntry Ray Robinson" is an actual alias, that would need a WP:RELIABLE source and I have been unable to find one. 1857a (talk) 05:16, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
- Eurovision song credit and a tweet is not exactly a reliable source 109.77.150.133 (talk) 17:43, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
- I'm aware. This is merely circumstantial evidence to back up that it's not citogenesis. ser! (chat to me - see my edits) 09:10, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
Name
Restarting the "real name" discussion as The Southern Star cites Thug's real name as Linnea Lagerqvist, of the Swedish Lagerqvist family. Perhaps this is not relevant evidence, but a number of songs found online credited to Thug also cite an "Anna Linnea Lagerqvist" in its songwriting credits (Ex. 1, Ex. 2, Ex. 3) Leaving this up for discussion in regards to inclusion in the article. { [ ( jjj 1238 ) ] } 04:16, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
- As the subject is non-binary and has specifically changed their name, this falls under WP:DEADNAME. This guideline says;
In the case of a living transgender or non-binary person, their birth name or former name (professional name, stage name, or pseudonym) should be included in the lead sentence of their main biographical article only if they were notable under that name.
Bambie was not notable under that name (song credits under a name do not convey notability, see Sophie (musician) for a similar example) and it should not be included. ser! (chat to me - see my edits) 09:09, 12 February 2024 (UTC)- But how do you distinguish between a dead name and a real name disguised by a stage persona? Are there any sources confirming this as a dead name or are you just assuming, because I have seen none? I would be more sympathetic if Thug was not still credited as a songwriter under this name. { [ ( jjj 1238 ) ] } 15:52, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
- They confirmed in an interview last year that they had came out as non-binary and changed their name to Bambie at 27. And in another interview, they talk about changing their name. It feels like a pretty routine calculation to assume that when someone comes out as non-binary and changes their name, that name is now a deadname, former name, whatever terminology you so pick - both are covered under MOS:DEADNAME.
I would be more sympathetic if Thug was not still credited as a songwriter under this name.
- they're listed under this name on three old releases that you've highlighted. They're not credited as thus on their recent EP, or the EP before that, or the EP before that, nor to the best of my knowledge any of the other singles. ser! (chat to me - see my edits) 18:00, 12 February 2024 (UTC)- 4 years compared to 27. At what stage does a change take effect? Was the change legal or purely for stage purposes? In regards fame, the article above quotes “I’d been a songwriter and in the industry for a while before I birthed Bambie Thug,” which suggests that bambie thug is merely a stage persona no different to slim ahady 2A02:8084:C83:2300:453B:F138:D217:2570 (talk) 14:39, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
- The difference being that Eminem did not legally change his name to Slim Shady, whereas Bambie changed their name from whatever it was prior to Bambie. As for the thing on the amount of years one needs to be known as something.. does it really matter? Elliot Page only came out four years ago and is still referred to by his current name on Wikipedia. ser! (chat to me - see my edits) 15:48, 2 May 2024 (UTC)

Bambi Thug hasn't won Eurovision 2024, that's false information. 78.17.115.224 (talk) 10:25, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
- Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Charliehdb (talk) 10:39, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
Name throughout article.
Should the article state "Thug" instead of "Robinson" throughout the article, such as this section:
Robinson was born in Macroom, County Cork, on 6 March 1993, to a Swedish father from Stockholm and a mother from Cork, and has three sisters. [...] They then moved to London to attend the Urdang Academy after Urdang gave Robinson a partial scholarship. However, Robinson broke their arm during their time in college, switching to study musical theatre.
be changed to
Thug was born in Macroom, County Cork, on 6 March 1993, to a Swedish father from Stockholm and a mother from Cork, and has three sisters. [...] They then moved to London to attend the Urdang Academy after Urdang gave Thug a partial scholarship. However, Thug broke their arm during their time in college, switching to study musical theatre.
This would be similar to how (e.g.) Lady Gaga's page mentions her as "Gaga", not "Germanotta" throughout her article.
