Dear John,
I think, since your clients are plural, the Latin should be:
A & P Douet me fieri fecerunt
A & P Douet mandaverunt
A & P Douet commiserunt
A & P Douet mandatum dederunt
A & P Douet mandatum detulerunt
( The ampersand is known from Roman times as a contraction of Latin "et" and so
should be spot-on! )
Regards,
Phil Walker

Subject: Latin help - thanks
Dear colleagues,
Many thanks to all those of you who sent me suggestions for a latin version
of "had me made" to put on the dial I'm designing. The dial will be in
vitreous enamel so, as I'm not doing all the making personally, the 'fecit' tag
against my name is not entirely appropriate. The suggestions I've compiled are:
J Davis fecit
J Davis excudit
J Davis excudf{.
J Davis delineavit
J Davis delinf{.
A&P Douet me fieri fecit
A&P Douet mandavit
A&P Douet commisit
A&P Douet mandatum dedit
A&P Douet mandatum detulit
I will let the clients have the final word!
Regards,
John
