Talk:James Simon (art collector)

1) The much longer German WP article – from which this article was taken – states his name as James Henry Simon, not Henri (French form) James Simon.

2) It would be interesting to know why his first and middle names were of English form. (The German article doesn't explain.) True, some other Germans, notably the anti-Nazi resistance leader Helmuth James von Molkte, bore the name James, but it's quite unusual. Sca (talk) 15:04, 23 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
