In a footnote to a 1921 paper by O. Masson in the Philosophical Magazine (O. Masson, Phil. Mag.41, 281, 1921) Rutherford describes how the British Association for the Advancement of Science at its Cardiff meeting beginning August 24, 1920 (see meeting report and announcement) accepted Rutherford's suggestion that the hydrogen nucleus be named the "proton," following Prout's word "protyle." Also cf. official report of this meeting, A.S. Eddington, 1920 Report of the 88th meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science (John Murray: London) p. 34.
