aargh, I can completely sympathise with the Mary Ann dilemma, I have two ancestors by this name and they appear variously as Maryann, Maryanne, Marianne, Mary Ann, Mary Anne or Mary A.

I also have a Lilias, who appears as Lilias, Lillias, Lilly and Lily.

I'm also currently trying to work out whether a women called simply 'Arabe' was Arabel, Arabella or something else entirely.
