[edit] Other uses

What about Aristo (aka Ariston) of Chios, nicknamed "the Siren", Stoic philosopher (Zeno's student) and Aristo of Pella, Jewish Christian writer of the mid-second century (Enc. Britannica, 11th ed.)? Should we not have at least stubs for these two? 64.60.100.162 05:40, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

These are now listed at the page Ariston. I know the first line the way I've left it is a bit awkward, but, since the name is always the same name in both spellings in Greco-Roman antiquity, it seems a bad idea to have two separate lists, which will never agree in correctness, completeness, etc. Wareh 21:02, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Or its use in the French Revolution?

Aristo stopwatches? "60 minutes" news program links to Aristo to provide info on the stopwatch. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.130.212.93 (talk) 03:36, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

And the white goods company Ariston too. I don't know whether they still operate outside Italy, but in the late 1980s they were around here in the UK, and had this memorable advert. 86.143.48.55 (talk) 01:32, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
