Honorable Mentions.

Famous… but not quite the same. A respectful gallery for the alternate spellings.

An Editorial Position

These remarkable people have accomplished incredible things. Unfortunately… their parents chose slightly different spellings.

While they don't qualify for inclusion in the Official Alastair Archive, they're still worthy of a respectful nod.

We hold no grudge. We simply hold a standard.
