I think Mayagna is the name used by the people themselves, (either that or they are a subset of the Sumo, not sure which). [1]--Yuletide 19:10, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Should we harmonise "Sumu people" with "Sumo language"? Should the preferred spelling be Sumo or Sumu? - Nat Krause(Talk!) 20:25, 11 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Both spellings seem acceptable, but after looking into it, I think "Sumo" is more widely used. I'll go ahead and move things around. — TheKMantalk 21:32, 11 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Mayagna is what they used in the land claim case, with the ruling in 2001.Parkwells (talk) 20:43, 10 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Possible name of article change?

[edit]

If the article itself says that the term the article derives its title from is considered derogatory, almost exclusively refers to the people as the Mayangna save for one or two quotations, and has the article title in parentheses as an "also known as" after "Mayangna" in the introduction, is there any reason why the name of the article should not be changed to "Mayangna people"?
