This genus name commemorates the French physician Guillaume Rondelet (1507-1566). He was a pupil of Guillaume Rondelet in Montpellier in 1560. Other major works were produced by William Turner, Pierre Belon, Guillaume Rondelet, and Ulisse Aldrovandi. The rondelet is a brief French form of poetry. The band moved to Rondelet Records soon after and recruited drummer Stuart Bray. After Soufflot's death, the church was completed by his pupil, Jean-Baptiste Rondelet. Rondelet was born in Montpellier in 1507. Like the plant genus of the same name, this genus is named after Guillaume Rondelet. Rondelet issued their second single, "Think For Yourself" on New Year's Day 1982. Rondelet published a treatise on architecture between 1805 and 1816. Rondelet is the diminutive of rondel, a similar, longer verse form. A genus of fish ("Rondeletia") and a plant genus ("Rondeletia") are both named for Rondelet.
