Spelling of name

[edit]

WHy does this article use the incorrect spelling "De Bruijn" instead of "De Bruyn"? The Wikipedia article in Dutch, the street in Brussels named after her/him, and newspapers and other documents of the time all use the "De Bruyn" spelling, which is common in Belgium. "De Bruijn" is how this name would be spelled in Holland. 62.205.97.10 (talk) 02:13, 2 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You're right. I first created it at "De Bruijn" because the first source I read used that spelling, and I didn't pay attention to the Bruyn vs. Bruijn difference. I moved the page now. Fram (talk) 09:34, 6 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
