I have this issue a few times with my first and all the time with my last...
People someitmes only use 1 d..
It's Todd...lol
 
My MOTHER misspelled my name- ON MY BIRTH CERTIFICATE! She spelled it Loreli and it's REALLY spelled Lorelei..... either way, nobody can ever pronounce it anyway!:rolleyes:
 
Yes, they never get it right. They put in a "y" or "ie", but it's just an "i". Kelli, simple. My mom wanted people read my name to know I was a girl, lol.
 
all the time. my maiden name got misspelled all the time too.
 

CONSTANTLY. My last name ends with "en" and I constantly get "er"
 
Yes sometimes. But when the pronounce Christine as Christina - now that makes me more mad.

Hi Todd! :teeth:
 
Not only misspelled but mispronounced! My name is so "original, unique", whatever that I have to say my first name, spell it, then say my last name and spell it so they can even figure out which is which! Argh! I know my parents meant well but really! :eek:
 
My married last name is impossible! It's Polish, and it is spelled nothing like it sounds.

My first name is Angela. I extremely dislike it when people call me "Angie".
 
First name....no.
Last name.......constantly. It's two words and either they make it one or add an extra letter or only use the last part of it.....and it makes for LOTS more junk mail!! :(

DD's is always spelled wrong. Even after almost 21 years, relatives still don't get it.
It's Christin no e on end. Said as Kristin.
 
Constantly!!!
Olga = Alga??
DD's name Sonya and they spell it Sonja , Zonya, you name it!
 
People are constantly mispelling my last name...
really funny when you consider it is on millions of boxes of cereal.
=0)
 
People misspell our last name all the time. They always want to add that one extra letter.
Also, dh has a first name that could be a last name, and we are often called Mr. and Mrs. (dh's first name), lol.
 
First name? No
but my last name is always misspelled. I'm used to it thought - no one could pronounce or spell my maiden name.
 
All the time even though I don't mind that as much as when they can't pronounce it. I always get "Sh" instead of "Ch"! :bounce:
 
I misspell my name all the time.:o

My last name is almost always misspelled by others. It's not a difficult name either.:rolleyes:
 
Yes to both, in fact, it's spelled wrong more times than it's spelled right.

My first name is Bet. No "H", no double "T" and no "E". Most people just can't believe it could be that simple! :)

My maiden last night was Murphey, spelled with the "ey" which is very unusual.

My married name, Snyder, gets lots of variations....Snider, Schnieder, etc.
 
My first name is Katrina. Not a very common name so many ask me how to spell it or use a C instead of K. Also my Mom's name is Chris so I get Christina. combo of both. Last name Shaffer can be spelled many ways (7 I know of) but usually people add a c, Schaffer. I've developed the habit when poeple ask me my name of saying Shaffer without a c.
