Cecil Rochford D'Oyly John - 1906-1993. If you can't get enough information off the many sites which mention him on Google, then ask the librarian at Tate Britain. The library has many reference books on British artists, and you are asking about quite a well-known one.
Reply:If you google his name as you spelled it you will get many sites up about him. There is one about his biography, but it seems to have a server problem at the moment.


What is the origin of the female Christian name "Wendy"....?

Is it true - as I have recently been told- that this name was actually invented by J. M. Barrie for the character in the book "Peter Pan" and that no such name existed prior to the writing of this book?

What is the origin of the female Christian name "Wendy"....?
I do not think that "Wendy" has any link with Christianity in fact it was a neck name which is now in use.
Reply:yes its true are you wendy?its meaning is nomad,from wendy
Reply:true
Reply:My mothers name is Wendy and the origins are true.





Actually my aunt named her as she and my nan went to watch Peter Pan in the cinema and my aunt suggested it.





Doing a search on the meaning I found this:





"From friendy-wendy. Invented by J M Barrie for Peter Pan."
Reply:WENDY


Gender: Feminine





Usage: English





Pronounced: WEN-dee [key]





Probably first used in J. M. Barrie's play 'Peter Pan' in 1904. It was from the nickname fwendy "friend", given to the author by a young friend. However, there is some evidence that the name may have been used prior to the play, in which case it could be related to the Welsh name GWENDOLEN or other names beginning with gwen meaning "white, fair, blessed".

Reply:Yup, that's right. I heard the same thing. The name Wendy didn't show up anywhere before the book came out.


Is is wrong to name your son Christian if you are catholic?

Personally, I loved the name Christian when I was a little girl... however, as I grew older I started to move away from the name because of the religious overtones...





I don't think that there is anything wrong with using the name... but if you are concerned, ask your pastor (priest?)





HTH :-)

He walks around and meets people who are wearing unlit Christmas lights and when he leaves, he's brightened their day in some way and then their lights turn on.

Why is the name of the christian God capitalised but no of the others?

when referring to other gods, why is it that they aren't given special treatment like the christian god, after all they are just one god amongst thousands.




Why is the name of the christian God capitalised but no of the others?
Yes, it麓s like a cat



Reply:You seriously need to think about the context where you got these ideas from: an english speaking, Christian context is obviously biased to those things.





This is only because you are living in a Christian society. If you lived in some certain societies, they would refer to the Christian "God" as "some other false god" and their own god would be spoken of with reverence.





Actually, the name of the Judeochristian god is Yahweh, but I bet you didn't know this because you are most likely ignorant of the history of the religion you claim to follow. This is something of a prejudice in the English language where Christianity made the name of their deity the same as the English word for a god (God is god). The word "god" comes from the Proto-germanic translation of the Greek word "deus" which comes from the base "dyeu-" which means "to gleam", "to shine".





So now because of your upbringing in a Christian society speaking English, you think only your god gets to be capitalized and that his "name" is God. Hilarious.
Reply:Because Christians believe in One Supreme Being, King of kings and Lord of lords. He created heaven and earth and everything in them. He sustains all creation and powerful and mighty above all those who are called"gods". He is coming one day to judge the living and the dead and will destroy who love darkness rather than light.
Reply:Because he is the Creator. God is a title. When referring to the Creator (God) the G is in capital letters to distinguish him from those called gods in heaven and on earth. Those called gods were created by the Creator (e.g., angels, human judges) or by his creation ( e.g., Zeus, Dagon, etc)





God and those called gods all have personal names. All personal names must be in capital letters.

Reply:I don't capitalize "god" when I'm referring to the christian version of god or any other one because it is a title not a name. If I am referring to a specific god, such as Odin, I capitalize the name.
Reply:They are always capitalized when writing about a specific deity (treated like a common name). The word "god" is lowercase when talking about a type of being.



Reply:The word is capitalised only by the followers of the particular deity. Non-Christians don't capitalise, unless it's out of long habit.
Reply:All personal names should be capitalized, but not necessarily TITLES.
Reply:He is the God of creation. He deserve total reverence. His name should be use carefully. Not used casually, or with contempt.
