On 28 March 2025, it was proposed that this article be moved from Eustace Tennyson d'Eyncourt to Sir Eustace Tennyson-d'Eyncourt, 1st Baronet. The result of the discussion was moved.

Surname

According to Sir Eustace, the family name was not hyphenated. His autobiography states, "my grandfather, Charles Tennyson, . . . first added to his name, at the wish of George Tennyson, his father, that of d'Eyncourt - the family through which he had descended on his grandmother's side."

He also states, "My father, Louis Charles Tennyson d'Eyncourt . . . " and describes his son as "Gervais d'Eyncourt."

He signed himself variously as Eustace H.T. d'Eyncourt, E.H.T. d'Eyncourt, or E.H. Tennyson d'Eyncourt

Although it is shown as hyphenated in many public records, and living members of the family use the hyphenated version, Sir Eustace did not hyphenate his name.

See A Shipbuilder's Yarn, Hutchinson & Co, 1948.

I propose to correct this. Hengistmate (talk) 22:57, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
