'Bosu' is non-standard spelling of this writer's surname. The name should be either 'Bose' (Anglicised) or 'Basu' (The usual modern Bengali version). I'm not sure about 'Buddhadeb' either. Shouldn't it be "Buddhadev'? If i don't get a response in say ten days I propose to rename.

I also feel that the surname should be "Basu". But the first name should remain "Buddhadeb" as this is the closest to the original bengali spelling and pronunciation.

I agree, 'Bosu' is not standard. If we wanted to be phonetic, we should have written something like 'Buddhodeb Boshu'. But being close to Bengali pronunciation is not the only consideration. Many people are already well known in English by some spelling of their name. Can some one find out what spelling he himself used in his English writings?

Oh my gosh, thank you! I'm so glad I looked at the talk page. It's impossible to find anything on this great writer with this Wikipedia name. It should be Buddhadeva Bose!!static shakedown 23:47, 16 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This is my great grand father! —The preceding

The author spelled his name as Buddhedeva Bose (in his own writings in English), so I think it would be proper to use that spelling. It is also the spelling by which his published work is widely cited (for example http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/74629/Buddhadeva-Bose). Having multiple spellings causes unnecessary confusion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Anirvan0419 (talk • contribs) 03:01, 5 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with the above. The title should be "Buddhadeva Bose" because that was his preferred spelling in all his English works. Google with "Buddhadeva Bose" yields 11.6K pages, vs 2.8K with "Buddhadeb Bosu", so this is also the more acceptable spelling. I have fixed all the spellings in the article to Buddhadeva Bose. mukerjee (talk) 17:56, 1 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
