Joe or Joseph

The convention that I've been adhering to and that I believe is documented is to prefer informal names that are more likely to be unique to the individual when such terms are what they use. This person looks more like a Joe, going be the article text. Here we go: "Titles and headings that include the name of a person should use the form that that the person most commonly uses/used, and if there is more than one common form the simpler of them." (LPedia:Manual_of_Style#Personal_Names) Is there evidence that he actually went by Joseph instead of Joe? -- Strangelv (talk) 18:39, 13 March 2019 (CDT)
