As has been mentioned several times, the name has been mentioned in-universe, but in a possibly-sarcastic manner. It's our own out-of-universe interpretation that currently keeps "Petronella" out of the article title.

Going back to my four questions:

1. Is human Osgood's full name Petronella Osgood?

If we make this move, we're still using out-of-universe sources to confirm an in-universe source; nothing about that fact has changed. However, Silenced changes the situation in one way, in that Ingrid Oliver has now been credited as playing Petronella Osgood (previously, she was credited solely as Osgood).

2. How should we deal with Osgood the collective identity as opposed to Osgood the human?

Nothing about this has changed. The collective identity is still the same identity originally held by the human, and nothing set post-Day indicates which Osgood is which. Every post-Day Osgood is using the identity of the human Osgood.

3. If the identity and a human share a page, how should it be disambiguated?

This question has already been answered, for the most part. Because the human and the identity both debuted in Day (even if the identity wasn't plot-relevant until Invasion), the page should be located at whatever title the human Osgood's page would ordinarily use, whether this be Osgood (The Day of the Doctor), Petronella Osgood, or something else entirely.

4. How do we disambiguate the Zygon Osgood from Day?

Day is the only story in which any Osgood can be definitively stated to be a Zygon. Bonnie is both a Zygon and an Osgood in Inversion, but no Osgood can be definitively stated to be Bonnie. This means that there is no need for story-disambiguation at this time, unless I'm overlooking a comic story in which Bonnie appears.
