Heh. It's been 10+ years since I read Dracula, so I don't know. Somebody
else emailed me about that, and about Dame. I do have to say, though, that
reading Helsing or Dame Integra would be off-setting for me. You are more
familiar with Dracula, and some others with English knighthood, but I don't
know if most readers of Hellsing fanfics would consider those more natural.
Before this discussion, I had read another Hellsing fic, which used Dame
instead of Sir. It annoyed the hell out of me. So, different people,
different preferences, I suppose.
That was a woman in the fic? I did not realise that. Oh...by the way
even though it's fair enough to assume that the name's spelling drifted
over the course of a century, Van Helsing was a Dutch name, not a
German one.
