Abstract

Prosper Menière published his famous original paper about vertigo in 1861. Since then, his name has appeared in the literature spelled in several different ways, such as Ménière, Menière or Meniere. Previously, Menière was the most commonly used in Europe, and Ménière in the USA. However, in recent publications Ménière, Menière and Meniere have been used interchangeably. Even on the tombstones of Prosper Menière and his family, the spelling of the family name varies: Prosper Ménière, Emile Menière and Michel Meniere.
