Illiam Dhone or Illiam Dhôan (literally meaning 'Brown William' in English) (14 April 1608 – 2 January 1663), also known as William Christian, was a Manx politician and depending on viewpoint, patriot, rebel or traitor. He was a son of Ewan Christian, a deemster. In Manx, Illiam Dhone literally translates to Brown William—an epithet he received due to his dark hair—and in English he was called Brown-haired William. Dhone was a significant figure in the Isle of Man during the English Civil War and the Manx Rebellion of 1651. He was executed for high treason in 1663. In the centuries after his death he has become a "martyr and folk-hero, a symbol of the Island's cherished freedoms and traditional rights".

  • Illiam Dhone, surnom de William Christian (né le 14 avril 1608 à Derbyhaven - exécuté le 2 janvier 1663 à Castletown), était un homme politique mannois, troisième fils d'Ewan Christian, deemster de l'île de Man. Il occupa des fonctions importantes, comme celle de membre de la House of Keys, puis surtout de gouverneur de l'île de Man. Il se rebella contre la famille des Derby, seigneurs de l'île, fut jugé sommairement puis exécuté dans la précipitation. Son fils, George Christian (1635-1694), se battit pour obtenir une réhabilitation, ce qui intervint sur ordre du Conseil privé du roi d'Angleterre. Illiam Dhone est aujourd'hui très populaire sur l'île de Man et considéré comme un résistant à l'oppression anglaise. Sa mort est commémorée tous les 2 janvier à Castletown. (fr)
