Has anyone misspelled your name before?

Yes my manager has a habit of misspelling it -________-

He writes Chelsey instead of Chelsea. Now I dont exactly like my name but I think Chelsey is worse atleast.(ive been working there for a year)

The reason why he is writing my name in the first place is for me to do overtime for him (this is every week= 18 hours extra than usual)............................. #rude! (yeah I just hash tagged, Ive never done that before)
 
Many, many, many times. I assume because my name isn't well known unless you know the franchise it comes from (I was named after a video game character..) and people would put 'e' instead of 'i'.
 
Almost as often as people mispronounce it. My name is Devon, but is pronounced like Devin, so people assume it's spelled with an i. It's also been misspelled "Devan" and "Deven". People usually pronounce it "deh-vawn", but the worst mispronunciation was "dee-vin". I hate my name sometimes, but no other name would really suit me xD
 
One time someone wrote the first letter of my name as a "G" instead of a "J" on an award I received.

Gee, that makes me feel so important...
 
lol all the time
Yusra is not what I would call a common name anyways though so I cant blame them

tbh this thread should just be called have you ever gone to starbucks before

A lot of times. My name is very unusual so most people always spell it wrong until I correct them. When I was a kid, people could spell it but always pronounced it wrong. Now it's the other way around.
 
You don't understand my struggleeee
My name is Hayley and the common misspells is see are: Haley, Hailey, Hailee, Haylee, & Haily
I've had my name wrong with my school for 2 years, (like on pictures and important documents, AND EVEN ON MY HIGH SCHOOL SCHOLARSHIP lol :') )
i love America :')

all the time. even my nickname. my name is isabelle, spelled like the acnl character, and i always get 'isobel', 'isabel', and 'isabella'. people just call me izzy, which often gets 'issy' (which i don't understand, lmao) and 'izzie'.
 
Yea I have had this also, I registered with this thing and they had to send a letter to clarify that I was a member so when I got the letter they spelt my last name as christrian, lol adding a r in the middle, I have also had this whith my first name and they only put 1 s instead of two!

I don't know how people get confused with Isabelle and Isabella. They each have different soundings!
 
Nobody's ever really misspelled it, but I once had this coach that pronounced my name (Daniel) Dayniel. Like wtf. And his name was Yassel lmao.
 
Nope, Summer is not hard to spell. I've had far too many people mispronounce my surname, though.
 
I actually misspelled my name once on a job application (smooth, I know)

That was embarrassing to explain when I got a job interview.
 
my name is cassandra, i've been called cassie my whole life, common as dirt names. they get messed up -all- the time.

my last name gets mangled just as much, and it's not really that long or weird.

My name is Diana IRL, and occasionally people spell it with two n's.

And sometimes people say it like "Dee-AH-na" (like Gianna) when it's supposed to be "Dy-AN-uh"
