Understanding this person's name edit

The title of the web page is Sahiti P. Lakshmi, and that is also the name on her FIDE rating card. The body of the web page refers to her as Pinnamaneni Lakshmi Sahiti. The US Chess Federation refers to her as Lakshmi Sahiti Pinanmeneni. 365chess.com has information pages on both P. L. S. and L. S. P.

So we have SPL, PLS, and LSP orderings of her names. I am certain these are all the same person (Woman International Masters are quite rare and her USCF page gives her FIDE title) but completely uncertain what the most correct form of her name would be. Can anyone with expertise in Indian names help out here? Mkkuhner (talk) 01:00, 16 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
