Talk:Julian Assange

être né or née (if female)

Unless you're suggesting Julian Assange was born a girl, Peter, the masculine né is correct.--Patrick Haseldine (talk) 12:12, 21 May 2019 (UTC)

Sorry. That's what comes of only ever having used it to specify maiden names. Duh! --Peter (talk) 13:28, 21 May 2019 (UTC)-- 13:28, 21 May 2019 (UTC)

An erudite observation https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/n%C3%A9e however I would challenge you to find né or être né used in that sense in English have a look at the second definition for née which is originally or formerly called. Another point in English the accent is not used.
