Duns Scotus

Scottish Franciscan friar known as the Subtle Doctor — who developed a complex metaphysical system including the doctrines of haecceity (thisness — what makes an individual particular) and univocity of being — and whose voluntarism (God acts by will rather than reason) influenced both Ockham and the later Protestant stress on divine will.
