The accepted spelling seems to be Comnenus, which I found out too late. Could the page be renamed? --Yak 17:49, Mar 11, 2004 (UTC) or even better Isaac of Cyprus, to avoid confusion with Emperor Isaac Comnenos --Yak 22:46, Mar 11, 2004 (UTC)

I moved it to Isaac Comnenus of Cyprus, and made a new Isaac Comnenus disambiguation page just in case anyone makes links to that in the future. (Thanks for making this page, by the way!) Adam Bishop 20:54, 14 Mar 2004 (UTC)

I've added further information about his daughter. Andrew Dalby http://perso.wanadoo.fr/dalby/ 12:49, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

His daughter was probably named irini rather than the english irine. like eleni instead of helen of troy--Slogankid 16:21, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

Do you mean his mother? His daughter's name, unless it's appeared somewhere in the article and I've missed it, is said to be unknown. As for the spelling, you're right that -i would be the transliteration from modern Greek, but Byzantine articles in Wikipedia use a different transliteration. In fact Eirene would be the preferred form. Similarly, Eleni which you cite is the modern Greek form but not the ancient one. Andrew Dalby 14:47, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
