When I see names with horrendous spellings, my first thought is that the parents are illiterate and simply spelled the name phonetically, the way they probably do most other things. That's not exactly the impression one wishes to convey, is it? When I hear that someone pronounces "Liam" as "Yum".....Well, I'd get points for what I think of that. 
My mother once had a cat named Jezebel, but I wouldn't tag a daughter with it, considering the most famous Jezebel of all and the general meaning of the name. 
When parents create an alphabet soup of a name (and let's throw in some apostrophes and random capital letters!) that bears precious little resemblance to how it is actually pronounced, they aren't doing their children any favors. You don't have to name your child a common name.....There are plenty of more unusual names out there that aren't ludicrous, spelled like a 4 y.o. invented them and don't subject your child to a lifetime of raised eyebrows and chuckles.
