Why separate your interviewee's name (on tape) and the spelling of their name (on your piece of paper)? It would be so easy to misplace the piece of paper.

Why separate your interviewee’s name (on tape) and the spelling of their name (on your piece of paper)?

It would be so easy to misplace the piece of paper.

Since you are interviewing someone and they are saying their name on tape, why not just have them spell their name right there for you on tape as well.

This eliminates two separate pieces of content — the audio and the piece of paper.
