For purposes of this discussion, I have two types of AKAs:
1) Those I want to appear in reports.
2) Those I DON'T want to appear in reports.

This issue addresses a wish of mine for some time now. I have tried to
make an AKA for every name I have encountered for a person. This
includes mis-spellings in census records, mis-readings in transcription
or indexing, etc. I have done this in order to include the name in the
Name List for searching purposes.
Don:
How many "types" of AKAs would you say you have? Obviously what you call
a mis-reading is one type. Another type might be a name that the person
was actually known as ... such as William was known as "Bubba". Are
there others?
