Ted or Ned? edit

Just going by Trove "hits", Elliott should be listed as "Ned" rather than "Ted", as it is clear that was how he was known in life. (in the decade 1880-89 8 hits v. 1); it's not until 1920-29 that "Ted" comes close (4 v. 2). However neither matches "Edward" at 33 in 1880-89 and 7 in 1920-29. Oh, and "Hudspith" is just plain wrong. Doug butler (talk) 10:17, 13 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
