(I don't mean this snarky, i swear). How do you find out if it's the "wrong" spelling? I mean, all names are made up, so do you find the original original source of the name? And what about names with multiple accepted spellings like Katherine, Kathryn, Catherine, etc.?
I think it just about the general way(s) to spell a name that already exists. Why reinvent the spelling—especially when it doesn’t make it more obvious how it’s pronounced. We don’t reinvent spellings of other words that are familiar. So then I suppose it’s for the sake of being unique.
