Talk:Meave Leakey

= Maeve/Meave =

Untitled
Her name is indiscriminately spelled 'Meave' and 'Maeve' in this article. Since the original Irish name is Maeve (anglicised spelling, pronounced 'Mayve') with the 'a' before the 'e', I would expect this is correct. 'Meave' (suggesting the un-Irish pronunciation 'Meeve') sounds like a typical English mangling of an Irish name. In Donald Johanson's book 'Lucy' she is repeatedly called 'Meave', and the Wikipedia article perpetuates this confusion.


 * The Leakey Family site gives "Meave" so I will consolidate all non quotes to that form: EmyP (talk) 12:03, 9 January 2015 (UTC)
