[edit] Misspelling

Is this person's name really spelled like that? The biography link seems to suggest so... PaladinWhite 22:43, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Do you mean the capitalization? If so, then yes, everywhere I've seen it it's the same. --Eyrian 23:14, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
The capitalization and double-F. PaladinWhite 00:11, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
In English, the double-f is a special case, and shouldn't be capitalised (although some modern-day holders of such surnames do, especially now databases are set up to automatically capitalise). Other examples are fforbes (eg. Audrey fforbes-Hamilton from To the Manor Born), fforde (eg Arthur fforde). Gwinva 07:26, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
