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... ![]() |

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 ![]() |

You know, according to Milton in Paradise Lost, punning is a sign of moral degeneracy... You degenerates. ![]() |

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? ![]() ![]() |
