Diego P?gine

So far I've come up with something like:

Supplanter Pages

from Italian, French, Spanish etc...
Which makes no sense so far... anyone got any ideas?

it might be a reference to a famous person or idea...

(edit) worth some extra credit in an assessment if I can work it out...  :D  Thought some of the Europeans here might have some ideas....

Sounds like it should mean:
Diego's pages.
A supplanter would obviously be someone who tried to take someone else's place.
Replacement pages, therefore?
But replacing what?
Anyway, that's as far asthis European's got... :(

Ok probably... Diego is a version of James, which has Jimmy as a variant, so Jimmy Page of Led Zep.

However, replacement pages is also quite nice given the context... I'm gonna use that too :)  Thanks V!

You know, according to Milton in Paradise Lost, punning is a sign of moral degeneracy...

You degenerates. :laugh:

That means I've been a moral degenerate for years.  :D

I always thought caries and a good deal of pain was a sign of molar degeneracy, not to mention my dentist getting rich.

:p  :p  :p  :devil:

Diego P?gine = Gideon Page.

Gideon Page is the main character in this novel:
http://www.amazon.com/Blind-Judgement-G ... 006101317X


Or it could be Pigeon Daeg. Daeg is an old english word for day derived form the scandinavian language.
So: Diego P?gine = Pigeon Day. Makes sense eh? :p :D
