"Jannopoulos"? There's no "j" in Greek or anything like it. [http://www.mospat.ru/text/e_news/id/10097.html The referenced page] also lists his birth name as "Ilija," which is also extremely unlikely for a Greek. My guess is that we're looking at Latinizations of Russifications of a Greek name. I'd put my money on "Elias Iannopoulos" or "Elias Yiannopoulos." —[[User:ASDamick|{{User<font color="blue"><b><i>Dcn.

== Giannopoulos ==
Greek authorities write the letter gamma (Γ) as G, not Y on the Greek passports. Also the letter eta (Η) as I, not E. Greek names should be written in the official Greek manner, and not in the various possible alternatives. The site http://www.patriarchofjerusalem.com/en/patriarxis/patriarxis.asp copied the biography from somewhere else with wrong spelling. Their attempt to translate the English text to Greek in the page of the Greek biography shows...
