The fun of names, is that just cause one source says it is spelled one
way, does not make it so. To many researchers have had limited space,
as well as limited samplings.. Theodorick or Theodorik, same name, but
different spelling. Fun is when the name goes thru atleast 2
intermediaries before it comes to English. Some languages don't have
letters and sounds for some sounds in Gothic (I suspose), so the names
get mangled.
