I do with my last name, even my DEBIT CARD doesn't have my last name spelt right. It isnt even trickey! (I wont diverge it for you to speculate, what with this being an online public forum n all) and people also like to inform me "no that isn't how you spell my name" Ooh thanks for that love, cause YOU know how to tell my name better than me. Cheers.

Yes, I sympathise.

Both my first name and last name,
They always put a different letter to what it should be.
It ticks me off.
It's like.. no THIS is how you spell it.

My full name is Katheryn. I get it spelled Katharine, Catherine, Kathryn, it's crazy.

My boyfriends name often gets mispelled a lot too, so we're in the same boat. His name is spelled Nyal, but he gets it spelled Nile and Nial.

Haha, most people spell my name incorrectly, unless they know me.
In fact, some can't even spell my surname, and my surname's hardly diverse, or oddly sounding, or anything. o_O
Ho hum. I know I'm quite well off, compared to some! x

You'll be alright

Most people can spell my first name right, although I did have someone mispell it recently. I think he spelled it Emalie or something rediculous like that. It's the standard spelling of one of the most popular girls names out there, and it's only 5 letters, so you'd think people would be able to spell it.

But they do get my last name wrong all the time. For that one, people like to add an H and/or an S even after I've spelled it for them. For some reason people just feel that one or both of those letters really has to be there

^haha, never seen Adam spelt with an o before...

People always spell my last name wrong, it's only one fooking letter but it really annoys me. And when I tell people it's spelt differently, loads of people ask, "Are you sure?"
What do they expect me to say? "Oh, sorry, I just forgot how to spell my name for a moment then"?!

*sigh*

My neighbour is called Adam and we have another neighbour who is forever shouting "ADOM" It does my nut in.

No-one can spell my real name and when i spell it for them they look at me dumb. It does annoy me when long time friends spell it wrong though.

Same! I started saying it's Kathryn with a K and a Y but found that just confuses people even more and you end up getting Katheryne or something just as silly! I've given up pronouncing my last name correctly now as no one ever spells it right if I say it how it's meant to be!

Tiffany.

How hard is that to spell?

Yeah, I shorten it to Tiff.

I've had people think my name was Stephanie.
Tiffani.
Tiffanee.
Tyffany?

I mean, hello, Tiffany isn't that hard to spell.
Especially if I shorten it!
