Talk:Princess Maria Elizabeth of Sweden

Elizabeth vs. Elisabeth
I was just wondering what the "official" spelling of Elizabeth is; would it be Elizabeth or Elisabeth? Should we keep the varied spellings or change Elizabeth to Elisabeth? I'm asking as the article calls her Maria Elizabeth and Maria Elisabeth. I do believe (correct me if I'm wrong) that the English spelling is Elizabeth, and the general European spelling is Elisabeth.

 * I agree, Elisabeth is Swenglish and should not be used on enWP for historical persons who lived before 1900 (that's about when we stopped translating foreign names into our own exonyms). We should change it to Elizabeth. I will look through the article and do so now. --SergeWoodzing (talk) 01:48, 2 March 2014 (UTC)
 * At first I was thinking we should use Elisabeth as that's the general European spelling and probably the way the Princess's name was spelt, but since you've said that before 1900, we stopped translating foreign names; now, like you, I think we should stick with Elizabeth.

P.S= Thanks for changing the spelling in the article, it makes more sense to me now. :) PrincessAlice13 (talk) 15:57, 2 March 2014 (UTC)
 * My pleasure, and thank you for pointing this out. Btw it was basically after 1900 we stopped translating personal names (names of people who've lived after 1990 to be exact). --SergeWoodzing (talk) 22:46, 2 March 2014 (UTC)
