Bodo language → Boro language (India) – Though in the past this language was called Bodo, currently it is more correct to use the name Boro. Ethnologue uses Boro ([1]). Colonial linguists (e.g. Grierson in the Linguistic Survey of India) used Bodo (Bodo_language#cite_note-3) but modern-day linguists have taken to using Boro as mentioned by Das & Mahanta 2019: "In terms of nomenclature, both Bodo and Boro are equally prevalent. The influential Bodo Sahitya Sabha (Bodo Literary Society) has approved the use of both Boro and Bodo to name the language. Many past and recent studies on the language like Burton-Page (1955), Bhat (1968), Bhattacharya (1977), Joseph and Burling (2001, 2006), Basumatary (2005), Boro (2007) and DeLancey (2010, 2011) have described the language as Boro. In this paper, we follow the name frequently used in these works on Boro and therefore use Boro." Chaipau (talk) 10:45, 17 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Additional comments: The name "Boro language (India)" better conforms to WP:NAMINGCRITERIA:
- It is more recognizable since it conforms to the pronunciation of the name. The name is pronounced with a rhotic.
- It is more natural as Boro is more common in linguistic publications, as well as what the Boro people themselves prefer (Boro_people#cite_note-14)
- Boro is definitely more precise than Bodo which is used to denote both the group of languages as well as an individual member of the group. The use of Bodo causes much confusion, which is cleared with the use of Boro.
- The use of Boro is also consistent with the use in Boro people.

Support per WP:COMMONNAME and WP:NAMINGCRITERIA. Although "Bodo" is still used, "Boro" has a higher prevalence in the recent literature about the language. –Austronesier (talk) 19:00, 17 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
