| Two small details: the name of Fidel's brother is Raúl, unless you want to show it in the English form (Raoul). The modern usage, however, is to respect the original name (e.g. Hugo and not Hugh Chávez). As for Pelé, his paternal surname is "do Nascimento" with an "s". I always knew his first name as Edson, but after looking it up, the actual name that appears in the birth certificate is "Edison", although Pelé himself says that it was a mistake and he claims to be "Edson". (In either case, the intention was to name him after Thomas A. Edison. It happened that just before Pelé's birth [1940], electric light arrived to his natal town). |
