Name

[edit]

I remember seeing several transliterations of this person's name as Ben-Nun, and was therefore reluctant to change it in any article. However, the name is generally transliterated as Bin-Nun. Is there any evidence that Ben-Nun is the proper transliteration, or even that this is how he prefers to write his name? —Ynhockey (Talk) 10:22, 2 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

it seems to me that his name is Ben Nun. i ahve also seen translations which put it as Bin Nun but when i see his name in hebrew its בו נון and it would seem to me that his name is ben nun since bin nun is more of an arabic name and ben nun is a jewish and a hebrew name.--Marbehtorah-marbehchaim (talk) 05:10, 14 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
