Wow, this relatively minor issue is really getting around ;-) On Wednesday 31 January 2007 20:15, Benno Schulenberg wrote: > If plain "Man" is deemed insufficiently clear when there isn't > enough context, then "eiland Man" or "Man (eiland)" could be used, > but without an uppercase initial for "eiland". IMO "eiland Man" would be incorrect as putting "eiland" in front implies that it _is_ part of the name and in that case it should be capitalized. I can also not think of any other example where something similar is done, while I can think of cases where you have, for example "XXX (republiek)" or "XXX, republiek". In this case I don't think using a comma would be correct though.
