So I was looking at the Tillerman books recently, and I noticed something I had never noticed before:
Mina's first name is Wilhemina, not Wilhelmina. Etymologically completely incorrect, which is why I never noticed!
Unless my Kindle copy has it wrong, but using the search feature, I see it's consistent. There's only one occurrence of "Wilhelmina."
Weird!
