He signed his name Coppernic. Copernicus is the Latinized version of the name.
first- Coppernic is different from Copernicus.
Then, our signature telling not only how we want to write and pronounce our name but also, how we understand that it is most convinient for our name to be written, how would other people easiest understand our name.
example
i using Latin and Cirilic alphabet, as all Balkan Serbs. If i travel to Poland i using my Latin version of signature. In Russia, i using Cirilic version. I personaly feel same pasion for my Latin and Cirilic versions of signatures. Most convinient for me is to use some simbols of my family clan for my signature but use of simbols isn`t that usual in signatures.
Now, can you judge about my ethnicity on the base of my signature? I can understand Kopernik if he used Coppernic for signature.
