He said his father didn't really have a preference about spelling; NLI also favors found Romanization. But whatever spelling is chosen, Zechariah stated that his father, like others from the community, didn't really have a surname: it's first name and patronym. The order is indeed first Yona and then Bugale, neither of which is a surname)
