message: A left-Leninist once told me that Anton Pannekoek was at one time the Dutch Astronomer Royal. I have read the main works on or by Pannekoek in English, and also his History of Astronomy, but I do not know whether this is true or not. If it is true, it should be mentioned here. I have emailed the Anton Pannekoek Astronomical Institute and asked them. --158-152-12-77  00:17, 26 August 2005 (BST)
This does not sound very plausible. The government did not want him to become a scientist at the Leiden observatory so how could they ever name him Dutch Astronomer Royal? yanneman 19:41, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: According to http://www.inghist.nl/Onderzoek/Projecten/BWN/lemmata/bwn5/pannekoe he was a member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences. He was also a professor at the University of Amsterdam. It appears that while the government did not endorse his appointment at the University of Leiden (which is a State University) they did not stop his appointment at the University of Amsterdam (a municipal University), nor his election as member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences.

message: Pronunciation - Pronunciation of the last name 'Pannekoek' would be useful, in fact it is the reason why in am here on english wiki :)
A friend of mine says it is 'Pannekuk', but i am not convinced.79.53.234.24 (talk) 20:33, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: "Pannekoek" is pronounced "pun-a-cook". As an aside, "pannekoek" means "pancake"; not the most unusual Dutch surname I've come across, but close.--Life in General (Talk) 16:10, 14 September 2011 (UTC)

text: Added  the pronounciation in IPA. Essentially it's Pan-nuh-kook where the kook part resembles the cook in cookie. Chaokang Tai (talk) 15:43, 28 July 2021 (UTC)

replies: text: Antonie Pannekoek →  – The shortened "Anton Pannekoek" appears to be the common name for the subject. Google Ngrams shows it to be, by far, more commonly used than his full name "Antonie Pannekoek". Personally I've always seen him referred to as "Anton", even the Dutch Wikipedia article refers to him as Anton Pannekoek. Grnrchst (talk) 09:43, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
