I guess adding a canon name would come in handy if the characters' names are the same without the last names. Two Fenrirs would be Fenrir (Canon Name) and Fenrir (Another Canon Name) but having Fenrir (Canon Name) and Fenrir Firewind (Canon Name) or adding canon names to namesakes with different last names would just look silly. The ones with last names should be left intact in my opinion. Same goes with roman numerals.

If there is a single dude with the name Fenrir in the whole wiki, I guess leaving him without the Canon name would work until another Fenrir of another canon shows up, logical enough.

The canon names should also be added to things that can easily leave someone confused, as with Elder Effect's planets which just had province names (just cleared it today, coincideeeence) and creatures. Everything that might be part of original TES lore/references/reflects TES lore etc.etc, that is.
