George Landen Dann (1904 – 1977) was an Australian playwright, writer, and draftsman. He is best known for a number of award-winning and critically acclaimed plays such as In Beauty It Is Finished, Fountains Beyond, Caroline Chisholm and The Orange Grove. Dann wrote dozens of published and unpublished plays over the course of his lifetime. Originally writing plays for the amateur dramatic society at Sandgate, Queensland, Dann was a particularly shy and reclusive person, and even though he wrote part-time, his more popular plays were widely performed by amateur theatre companies around Australia. George Landen Dann's writing has been appreciated for its social realism, with a number of his plays delving into issues involving Indigenous Australians and their central characters reflecting individuals that Dann had met during his time in outback Australia.

As someone with this name. Because of its variants, when your parents (or yourself) give you this name, when you become of age (say 5-10 years old) you can choose which name you want. Having this name (whether it’s Landen or Landon) you will often be asked, “Do you spell it En or On?” Sometimes people assume it’s common spelling (Landon) and just write it as such.

I actually love this name. It sounds sophisticated, strong, refined, yet modern as well.
