When Grahf and I were in London recently, we went to the replica of the Globe Theater, which has the original of Shakespeare's will. This will contains the only known specimens of Shakespeare's handwriting (all of his original manuscripts have been lost) in the form of his signature. What is germane here is that he signed this will in 4 different places - and the spelling of his name, in his own handwriting, is different in each of the 4 locations.
Maybe the Good Doctor was a direct descendant.
