Fibonacci himself used convention 3 above. In it he outlines a puzzle regarding how fast rabbits could reproduce in ideal circumstances. A piece of history worth noting: Leonardo of Pisa (Fibonacci), first wrote about this sequence in his 1202 book, Liber Abaci. Of his books, some no longer exist, but we still have copies of Liber abaci written in 1202. O Liber Abaci introduziu os numerais hindu-arábicos na Europa, além de discutir muitos problemas matemáticos. Fibonacci subsequently travelled broadly, where he learnt from mathematicians of different cultures. Liber Abaci also introduced to the West a mathematical sequence now known as the Fibonacci sequence. The Wikipedia article gives a lovely illustration of a page from Fibonacci's Liber Abaci which has a table of the Fibonacci numbers F0, … F12. It was a solution for a problem that was asked by Leonardo of Pisa (more popularly known as Fibonacci amongst the pretentious one's) in his book Liber Abaci. The sequence was known to Indian mathematicians as early as the sixth century. The book presented the numbers in a riddle. Known as the Fibonacci sequence or the Golden Rectangle, Fibonacci's numbers were first published in the West in Liber Abaci (1202) by the Italian mathematician Leonardo of Pisa. The Fibonacci sequence is named after Leonardo of Pisa, who was known as Fibonacci. Liber Abaci formally introduced the Fibonacci Sequence to the world. The riddle was about how rabbits breed with each other. It's Liber Abaci (“Free Abacus” in English), originally published in 1202 by the mathematician Leonardo of Pisa, also known as Fibonacci, and still available on Amazon today. Fibonacci is known for popularising the Arabic numerals (1, 2, 3 etc.) in Christian Europe, but is probably most famous for the number sequence he published in his book, Liber Abaci.
