[Douglas Barry]

And signed with a capital T too, so THAT'S IT!!

Douglas
who always wondered whether the "Ted" was a diminutive of Eadweard as in

I figured that the name he was born with was not "Ted", probably "Theodore" or "Edward", and spent more time than I care to admit trying to find official documents, but can't find anything authoritative. Does anybody know?
