Tonie → Tonie (given name) – Search results elsewhere seem to associate "Tonie" more closely to the subject at Tonies (company). However, It does not seem as though there is enough to validate Tonies (company) to be the primary topic for the singular for "tonie". The option here would be to disambiguate, probably by performing this move then retargeting Tonie to existing disambiguation page Tony. Steel1943 (talk) 17:51, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: The company is "Tonies", not "Tonie". Their product is called the Toniebox, not the Tonie. — BarrelProof (talk) 18:25, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Yep, but the internet don't care, as I attempted to make clear in my nomination statement. Seems that per search engines, the singular "Tonie" is a plausible search term for the Tonies company. (And ... Toniebox? Thought we were talking about the company, not its product lines.) Steel1943 (talk) 21:28, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
Supportthe company has 743 views compared with only 67[[1]] for the name but the name might have more long-term significance. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:00, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- How many of those 743 views are people looking for "Tonie"? That's not the company's name. — BarrelProof (talk) 18:16, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- OK struck, I missed the fact the company is in the plural form, its possible its a contendor so I'm not opposing for now though. Crouch, Swale (talk) 21:33, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

- Oppose. None of the proposed alternatives use this spelling. Any ambiguities can be addressed via hatnote or in the see also section. - Eureka Lott 15:50, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
