	Spelling Inconsistencies
	Posted By: Steve Levinson	Date: 2/26/02 12:26 p.m.
	I know that this is covered on the story page and has been discussed a bit before, but why are there so many inconsistencies in the spelling of names in Marathon. We have Bernard vs. Bernhard Strauss, the Jjaro vs. the Jjarro and maybe verses Yyro etc. And these spellings are coming from AI's - computers no less. I know that the S'pht and Pfhor names would be subject to transliteration into English, but one would think that there would be a standardized way to do this. And what about Bernard? Is all of this just sloppy spelling on the part of Bungie, or is there some significance to all of this?
