Talk:Mattheus Le Maistre

Points about his name
Nowhere does the text inform the reader that "Le Maistre" simply signifies "the Master", that is "Matthew the Music Master", a sobriquet, not a surname-- as is confusingly suggested by calling him Le Maistre throughout instead of Mattheus. The briefly noted alternative sobriquet, Nidlender (pronounced as Niedländer), identified him as "the Lowlander". These points might help the reader and perhaps the editor.--Wetman (talk) 02:55, 14 February 2015 (UTC)
 * , Do you have a source that states that "Le Maistre" is merely a sobriquet? Kade mentions this as a possibility, but then concludes it is his surname.  I chose not to include this information as Kade got several other things wrong.  The other superior sources do not address this issue, but do refer to him as "Le Maistre" which indicates surname.  Thanks for you help!    78.26   (spin me / revolutions) 16:04, 18 February 2015 (UTC)
