The result of the proposal was restore the title to "Chiemsee", per the discussion below. Dekimasu よ! 14:30, 2 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have never seen this referred to in English-language publications as anything other than Chiemsee - I feel sure this is the most-commonly used English language name. Knepflerle (talk) 18:38, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

google scholar hits:

418 for "Chiemsee Bavaria" [1]

11 for "Lake-Chiem Bavaria" [2], most of which are for "Lake Chiem -see". Yaan (talk) 18:51, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lake Chiem is rare, and at worst a neologism. We serve our readers by using titles that they are likely to see, read and use in the English language - this is exactly what UE says, and why it supports the use of Chiemsee. Knepflerle (talk) 21:45, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Seems quite convincing to me. Even "Lake Chiemsee" seems to be more frequent than "Lake Chiem". -- User:Docu

support: common English name. Yaan (talk) 12:20, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

While "Lake Chiem" is certainly a valid redirect, its usage in English is primarily archaic. "Lake Chiemsee" has also been used in English, but is a pleonasm. By far most common in English is simply Chiemsee. Olessi (talk) 01:57, 29 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Frauen and Herren[edit]

Though or just because I do not doubt that most of the nuns and monks behaved as ladies and gentlemen, I think it's convenient to mention that the source of the islands' name is the following: "monastic/clerical women resp. men". "Herb", by the way, is correct. The Krautinsel was indeed the kitchen-garden. Hellsepp 01:44, 8 September 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hellsepp (talk • contribs)
