Variant spellings of his surname

Why are there two spellings of the surname in the article (Gile, Giles)? Is the spelling Giles in the infobox an error? I think the article should mention the variant spellings if both are used in reliable sources. If all the major sources consistently use Gile only, then I think only that spelling should be used in the article. Jeffrey Beall (talk) 19:38, 26 December 2023 (UTC).[reply]

It was a typo, thanks for catching it. PigeonChickenFish (talk) 21:39, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Sure. There's a second Giles spelling lower down in the infobox. Should that be changed also? Jeffrey Beall (talk) 00:38, 27 December 2023 (UTC).[reply]
