Answered-Help with birth record from processetti - comparison of surname handwriting in 3 documents
I believe the record below is for the birth on April 1, 1763 of Giuseppe Licitra. The records states the parents (married couple) as Fillipo Licitra and Anna [daughter of Castelleti?] , but I am having trouble identifying where it states Giuseppe's name. Also, is Joseph et Salvator godparent- what does the "PP" stand for?
Additionally, in two other records I read Anna's surname differently so I think I am not reading the handwriting correctly- the records are at:

Yes, this is indeed his baptism record from 1763.
The surname of Anna looks to be Incastilletti, and it's the same surname on all 3 records.
Understand that surname spelling was very much open to the interpretation of the particular priest or clerk, it's not like in modern times when exact spelling is fixed by government IDs or similar. Therefore, minor variations like you see here are very much expected and nothing to be concerned about.

Thank you! I understand surnames were not consistent in spelling, but for some reason I was making myself crazy with a few of the letters in the handwriting and wasn't sure I was close.
