Orchid nomenclature

[vvork]

Hi everyone,

Im new to the board and would like to ask if someone could possibly help me with a question concerning orchids named after known personalities.There are a some interesting examples I came across such as the supposed renaming of an orchid initially registered as Cattleya Joseph Stalin. Or the Kimilsungia named after Kim Il sung, several orchids named after princess Diana and orchids named after actors from Jackie Chan to Greta Garbo (by Raymond Burr).

If you know of any further examples I would be very interested to find out as Im just researching this for an essay on orchid nomenclature.

Many thanks in advance,

Oliver
