Delores

When I saw the name "Delores" in a Vancouver 24 hours article ("Very superstitious") yesterday, I thought it an interesting name with an interesting spelling. But after that one (mis)spelling, her name became "Dolores" throughout the rest of the article:

Maybe she declined to give the correct spelling of her first name. Here are some other variations the writer could have used: Doloros, Deleres, Deloros, Doleros, Doloris, etc.
