Person talk:Okke Evenga (1)


His familyname Evenga [19 August 2012]

In this case, where Okke is called Evenga all his adult life, I would prefer to use as main entry Evenga as his official name. I do also support to take most of the time the name as written in the birth-record, but in this special case as by all people born before 1811 I would like to use the familyname although it differs from his birthname.

Erenga is just a wrong transcription in the marriage record. Reading the original in www.allegrongers.nl makes clear, that the person who made the transcription took the v as an r, but it is v. So I propose to remove this alt-name.--Klaas (Ekjansen) 03:01, 19 August 2012 (EDT)

OK, that makes sense. --Pkeegstra 06:32, 19 August 2012 (EDT)
