The name the "Voynich manuscript" has always bothered me as "Voynich" is a Polish name(East European) name and people can easily be misled on seeing the name to thinking it is East European in origin.
Anyway Wilfred Voynich did not discover the manuscript merely rediscovered or arguably maybe really just publicised it internationally.
And when the name of the author(s) are definitively known will it be renamed?
Now, I know enough to know the name will never be changed, once something gets a name whether justified or not it almost never gets changed. However I can't help but feel that Voynich has unfairly got his name attached to the manuscript based on his lucky find.
Anyway, none of this is serious, just a thought.
