Numerous examples of this can be seen in Wutz, F. (1925). Die Transkriptionen von der Septuaginta bis zu Hieronymus, Berlin/Stuttgart/Leipzig.
Had User:Iblardi bothered to study first what he is disingenuously attacking he would have noticed that in F. Carotta, Jesus was Caesar. On the Julian Origin of Christianity, 2005, note 75, p. 370 it says:
""It is also assumed that the Septuagint was transcribed in Greek letters first and was then translated with occasional perceptual errors, amongst them the ones due to the misreading of the direction in which various words were to be read (cf. Wutz (1925). Apart from the Septuagint, transcriptions of Hebrew texts are contained in the writings of Flavius Josephus, Origenes, Eusebius, Epiphanes, Aquila, Symmachus and Theodotion. For the heterographical use of the Aramaic in the Persian cf. Segert (1990), 1.7.6. So it is conceivable that a copyist has taken the name Antonius to be a reversed, heterographically inserted Simona and that he has ‘corrected’ the supposed mistake."" —   "
