Below is the list I have come up with by adding together spellings I believe are normally pronounced the same in the USA from the full Social Security data which includes all spellings given to five or more boys in 2015. This was created from all names where the most common spelling covered at least 1000 boys. There may be a few names with multiple spellings of just below 1000 that would make this list if I had time to do this for the entire data set. Though I think this information is more useful for many parents trying to judge how popular a name is before choosing one, there is always some degree of subjectivity and no two people would combine spellings in exactly the same way. For example, I do NOT add in boys named Tomas with Thomas because I think of the former as being accented on the second syllable and so being pronounced differently. Other people might add those two together.
