Default Kid Icarus (#1864)

Hey so let's talk about the romanization of パルテナ for a sec:

Palutena: name used in the U.S. releases of the games

Paltena: printed on this album http://vgmdb.net/album/1435

Palthena: printed on this album http://vgmdb.net/album/404

Are there any folks knowledgeable about the series who know if there's a preferred romanization of the name in Japan? Prime Blue, who did an obsessive amount of research on these things, seemed to favor Palthena, but he left so I can't exactly ask him why.
