The thing is, I think you're trying to force a pun where there isn't one because it'd be cool or neat. There are far, far better ways to have a name pun on "erotic" and you yourself have stated that Ilotte's name does not bear similar spelling unless you're stretching it with the "E-rotic" thing. If there's a pun, it's in pronunciation and in the l/r similarities, not in the spelling. Which is something best saved for trivia and is not able to be carried over without straining something--which sometimes happens. She also chose l over r because, in her experience, that's what would likely be happening there, especially on a name.

As well, I don't believe "the spelling doesn't match up, but there is a chance for a pun" is a good reason for a change.

As I stated, I'd be fine for Ilot, but Ilotte looks more like a name for me--and with Beelzenia being essentially Rome and Asmodean being a territory of Beelzenia at the time, Ilotte does seem to be more in-line with the culure than Ilot, but that's my own preference between the two.

If any of this doesn't make sense, I apologize. I'm kind of sick and fevery.
