Alternatively, if there are more than two alternative names, these names can be moved to and explained in a "Names" or "Etymology" section; it is recommended that this be done if there are at least three alternate names, or there is something notable about the names themselves.

As an exception, a local official name different from a widely accepted English name should be retained in the lead.
