Not mentioning the surname. It looks like the publishers are not
spell checking the crator names from Inducks/COA. They probably
trade names via muffled/buzzing phone lines. No other rational
explanation here? (or very unclear handwriting?)

When the Finnish publisher started to print writer/artist names
in the Jan. 1998 they also did some "minor" misspellings at first.
Especially with Italian names. E.g. in RS1998/12 an Italian artist
'Luigi Piras was turned to "Gigi Riras" .. an so on.

Yet mostly the errors were like in AATK 244 (2000) where Antonella
Pandini was switched to "Antonella Padini" and so on again. A Daan
Jippes story in AA2002/1 was inked by "Michel Naar".

Since then much much less typos are occuring nowadays. Just few
stories are having seemingly totally wrong credits instead.
