N2 - We examine the development of the idea of the linguistic individual and the concept of idiolect from antiquity to contemporary theories and provide a brief survey of international approaches to these discussions, and empirical attempts to establish the evidence of existence of idiolects before looking at applications, primarily in forensic linguistic casework. The future indicates that interest in Large Language Models is likely to influence development of both theory and empirical evidence that idiolects exist.
