Mehmed or Mehmet
edit- Sayın Nedim Ardoğa claims Correct spelling. But this claim is not correct. Both of them (Mehmed and Mehmet) can be used. Only in modern Turkish language spoken/written in the Republic of Turkey, Mehmet is preferred to Mehmed. If we consult sources, especcially English sources, we can understand that Mehmed Pasha is common use, especcially Ottoman era. Off coursa for this person. In short, Mehmed is common use for Ottoman people, Mehmet is common use for modern Turkish people. Takabeg (talk) 12:43, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
