[mb-users] Anne Preven/Anne Previn Alias or two different Performance Names?

[Alexander Kiel]

Hi Folks,

this is my first post here, so be gentle :-)

I have a problem with the two artists:
 - http://musicbrainz.org/artist/a61215af-2da4-4d1d-9853-97ceb105ecc0.html
 - http://musicbrainz.org/artist/ea57170e-f6b9-48b7-9960-2663aeb77740.html

Her real name is likely to be Anne Preven. Evidence:
 - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_Preven
 - http://www.myspace.com/annepreven
 - http://www.discogs.com/artist/Anne+Preven

She is well known for her song Torn. I was about to enter some Data to 
the cover version of Natalie Imbruglia [1]. On my CD, one can read "Torn 
written by Previn/Cutler/Thornalley.". So she is called Previn there. So 
my question: Is Preven/Previn a spelling issue and so an Artist Alias in 
MB terms or is it a different Performance Name?

Currently we have already the two artist entries. But I think that this 
is more an spelling issue. Why I think so? On the Wikipedia's song page 
of Torn [2] they call her Preven. Here [3] they call her Previn. AMG has 
Preven [4] and they have no Anne Previn at all. At the Wikipedia page of 
Faith and Courage [5] you have Preven and Previn where I can't see any 
different performances or other reasons for separation.

Maybe someone with a better english spelling background can explain if 
this is perhaps a common spelling issue.

Regards
Alex
