I decide what name I am going to use - usually the modern "today" name. I would then add "found as" for either a different spelling, or a different name entirely.
Example: John Whittaker. In the notes I put baptised as Garlick, married as Garlick, died as Whittaker. Sounds difficult but it isn't actually! You could double barrel the surnames if it makes it easier for you.
