Kim W,
It's the same name.
The name Antonio, when pronounced, can have that final "o" sound dropped,
so it will sound more like "Antone." The name Ignacio, when pronounced,
can also have that final "o" sound dropped, so it will sound more like
"Igg-nauce" (nauce rhymes with sauce). Somehow, that winds up as Enos. So
depending on where your ancestor lived, whom he was talking to, what his
accent was like, how familiar the other person was with the Portuguese
accent, and who was filling out the form, you'll get different spellings
for the same name. You get to look for ALL those names. Just think of it as
making you a better researcher.
