Thomas Dent Mutter → Thomas Dent Mütter – English usage of his name varies. Recent sources about the person use the umlaut version of his name: WHYY and Smithsonian, though sources covering a recent book about his life do not: Inquirer. English-language users likely are familiar with him via the Mütter Museum founded on his contributions, which uses the umlaut in their own name and in the name of the person: Overivew. Additionally, though guidelines don't consider the usage by the person in question, it's worth noting that his headstone uses the umlaut as well. ManOfTheArk ( talk) 20:26, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
