A relative of mine that died recently was called Laureano. I guess this is one of those cases where we can use both forms nowadays. Laureano/Lauriano, Açoreano/Açoriano, Victor/Vitor, Baptista/Batista, etc... 2017-08-16 11:22 GMT+01:00 Tomas Leal : > Oops! I just did a search on the complete text

The spelling of names in the past is always a challenge, especially with varying degrees of literacy and the near-absence of widespread communication that could help form standards as with Maria, João, José, Manuel, António, and so on. So many other names have variant spellings because of the u
