Caution: Misinfo!
George Orwell wasn't a fan of names, so he didn't give his son a name and nobody ever called Orwell 'George'. Sometimes though people would say something about the family, the 'Orwells' or about 'Orwell's' works. So the son assumed his fathers name was 'Or Welles'. That's how he came to the name Orson Welles.
At least that's my mnemonic to let my dyslexic brain remember who of the two was born first.

Kleine Leküreempfehlung. In seinem neuen Buch führt uns Nick Lloyd von @spanish_civil_war_tours wie immer orts- und sachkundig auf einer Art Roadtripp in die #Geschichte zurück zu den zentralen Ereignissen während des #spanischenburgerkriegs bzw. während der Spanischen Revolution von 1936 in #Katalonien und Aragon. Wirklich sehr flüssig und gut geschrieben. Gerade für Fans von George #Orwell echt lohnenswert.

A quotation from George Orwell
Artists don’t so much object to aesthetic discipline. Architects will design theatres or churches equally readily, writers will switch from the three-volume novel to the one-volume, or from the play to the film, according to the demand. But the point is that this is a political age. A writer inevitably writes — and less directly this applies to all the arts — about contemporary events, and his impulse is to tell what he believes to be the truth. But no government, no big organization, will pay for the truth. To take a crude example: can you imagine the British Government commissioning E. M. Forster to write A Passage to India? He could only write it because he was not dependent on State aid.
George Orwell (1903-1950) English journalist, essayist, writer [pseud. of Eric Arthur Blair]
Essay (1944-10-13), “As I Please” column, Tribune NewspaperMore about this quote: wist.info/orwell-george/42525/
