[edit] Name/title

Basil Fool for Christ is it really most common english usage? He was Blazhenny, not yurodivy. `'mikkanarxi 23:33, 2 November 2006 (UTC)


I'm pretty sure it is. This is how I've always heard his name, anyway. Also, if you go into an Orthodox shop in the U.S., usually they are selling his icons, etc. under that name. On a different note, I wonder how appropriate the link to Holy Basil is. The saint has little to do with the plant, I think. Ştefan 12:22, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
