Biographical data
Name: Løwenborg, Knut Otto Reinhold  
   Also known as: O. von Løwenborg
Born: 2 Mar. 1888
Died: Dec. 1969
 
Notes:
Gaige, in Chess Personalia, gives his name as 'Löwenborg, [Knut] Otto [Reinhold]', but in Chess Tournament Crosstables as 'Löwenborg', 'Løwenborg, O.', 'von Löwenborg', or 'von Løwenborg, O.'. Presumably, the names Knut and Reinhold are uncertain or were rarely used. Di Felice gives his name as 'Loewenborg, Knut Otto Reinhold'. Tidskrift för Schack (1912, p.124) has 'O. Löwenborg'.
