Until XIX Century, this name alternance was very usual. I have an ancestress in Brazil (XVIII Century), that was called Francisca Maria de Jesus, Francisca Silveira da Rosa, Francisca da Rosa Silveira, Maria Francisca de Jesus, Francisco Antonia de Jesus and Francisca Antonia da Luz. Usually, first name doesn't change.

They also show up in the individual record. You can try yourself, go to http://venturas.org/familytree/search.php, and search 'Julieta'. You'll get one hit: my grandmother, which used two names (Julieta da Ascenção and Julieta do Rosário Ventura). Which program do you use that doesn't allow for name aliases? I know at least Roots Magic does (http://www.tamurajones.net/RootsMagicAlternateNames.xhtml) João C.
