[edit]

It seems certain that the knight's name was Vencellin/Vencellin (Wenzel is indeed a German name, Wenzelin a variation thereof), some medieval Hungarian scribe might have misspelled its "Latin" rendition to Vecelin (which doesn't even seem necessarily the case, since even the HUNGARIAN WP ARTICLE is titled VENCELLIN, with an "n"!!!), but that shouldn't concern the English WP.Arminden (talk) 14:26, 1 December 2015 (UTC)ArmindenArminden (talk) 14:26, 1 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please read and apply Wikipedia:Moving a page. However, I note that he seems to be named Vecelin in English literature. (I refer to (1) Kristó, Gyula (2001). "The Life of King Stephen the Saint".
