Name

Owen Glendower is a book about Owain Glyndŵr. I've made some changes towards consistent and correct use, but more needs to be done, with care to use "Owen" and "Owain" correctly. I think the article also requires a section early on explaining the difference and reason for Powys's use of the anglicised version coined by Shakespeare. --Cymrodor (talk) 12:02, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Cymrodor an interesting point. A quick look at the novel indicates that Powys uses "Owen Glyn Dŵr", usually just "Owen", and occasionally "Owen ap Griffith" or the anglicised "son of Griffith Fychan". I'll deal with this matter. Rwood128 (talk) 13:45, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Crikey, the use of "Glyn Dŵr" is quite a leap from "Glendower". It's only recently the Welsh Wicipedia agreed to use "Glyn Dŵr" rather than "Glyndŵr". Perhaps in time Wikipedia En will follow.
