ArchivesI want to add a name to the database, but I don't know what to put for usage
The information I have is that it is a Latin name and it was used between 1483 – 1552. It's a little too late to be given Medieval Latin, but I don't know what else is after that.
Can anybody help?

Do you know where it was used: Britain, Francophone places, Italy ... ? It's a tricky time period: not quite medieval, but not quite Renaissance either.

Yes;
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paolo_Giovio
Purely according to his wikipedia page, there's technically three surnames here; Giovio, Jovio (variant) and Jovius (Latin variant). The guy was born in Italy.
Should I add them all as Italian?

Giovio/Jovio should be Italian, or, if it died out in the late middle ages, Medieval Italian. You could also use the "archaic" flag if it died out in the modern era. Jovius should be Italian or Medieval Italian, but marked "Latinized".

Thank you, Mike. I will try and look more into the names and do my best with the submission :)

Giovio and Jovio would sound the same, so it's a spelling issue. Like Susan and Suzan. Wikipedia stays with Giovio, and I would too. He would have used the Latin version if he ever had to write and then sign a document, and no doubt he could and did speak Latin, but it wouldn't have been his baptismal name.

So, when I submit the names, do you recommend that I do the following?
- Submit Giovio and mention Jovio in the text, but not submit Jovio separately
- Submit Jovius as a Latin variant of Giovio
Thank you for the help, Anneza
