Subject: Годефридус Буиис
Any ideas on what this name may look like in the original? I think the person may be Swiss but the name actually looks Lithuanian, doesn't it? Either way, I need it in latin letters. Thanks in advance

Kath, is the guy a known person?

As far as recall my years in the Baltics he will go as Godefridus Buiis.

The problem is that the person with such a name is not mentioned in the net. is he supposed to be well-known, and if yes, in which field?

Look! Try to Google the guy separately. He is OK.

Впрочем, по-русски его тоже нет нигде в инете

Вячеслав, так он же не separately. Но имя есть ссылки, на фамилию тоже, а вместе - нету. Но по-русски его тоже нету.

No comments.Look him up separately and put him together to revive the poor Litovetc.

Немного контексту бы не помешало (это understatement). Почему, прежде всего, вы решили, что это литовское имя? Мне оно куда больше кажется латинизацией имени Годфруа Бульонского, в стиле гуманистов 14-15 веков.

Вот это случайно не ваш персонаж?

No, he is not a famous person. I thought that maybe someone would know how to transliterate it. I googled both together and separately, nothing remotely similar. Anyway, used the same transliteration as suggested by Viacheslav Volkov and told the client to verify. After all, they would know best. Thanks everyone.
