Hi

I was wondering if there was a general consensus on what to do with names with variations/different spellings (this is almost all of them!). For example, I have a Helena in my tree and I also have an Elena. I know these are technically the "same" name but the spellings have been different. Do these spellings reflect the priest who wrote the records or how the people in question actually wanted their name spelled? If it is all based on the priest I will start adopting standardized spellings for the sake of organization. Just looking for some opinions/information on this! Thanks!
