They are normally quite understanding about different spellings when names are transliterated from another alphabet.  (Note: there is a small chance the officer could disqualify if the name is different from the passport as the rules are to use spelling exactly as passport.)

For DS260, fill in your name as per passport, birth certificate etc and put the other spelling under “other names used”.
