No. You misunderstood it seems. We have plenty of references to the
use of the forms William la Zouche Mortimer and William la Zouch de
Mortimer.

You made m assertion, unsupported by reference, that William had
maintained that his preferred form was William la Zouche Mortimer.
That was the reference I was asking for.

As you rightly say frequently, unsupported assertions are worthless,
so please let us know where your assertion comes from.
