Weird name misspellings? o.o"

[Skye the Wolf]

Has anyone ever had somebody spell your name COMPLETELY wrong or weirdly? I've had it happen to me all the time. People still call me DarkWillow, some Dark Willow, etc. In fact, one person even thought that "Darkwillow" was somehow "Black Willow." o.o

So... anyone had any bad name experiences? >_<

[Saturnalia]

As far as online names go, I've had a lot of people mix mine up a bit, usually just misplaced letters. Saturnlania has been relatively common, or just Saturnia. My other online name, Etaven, is most commonly misspelled as Elaven, though the debate with that one is more concerned with the pronounciation.

My rl name is almost always mispelled. Everyone wants to spell it Tori, because of Tori Amos or whatnot I guess But I like y's! It's Tory! Even most relatives spell it with an i on cards and stuff, though. Blah.

[Thats Storm not Strom]

Well, I don't get a lot with Storm. Though I have been called Strom a time or two.
But IRL, my married name was Always getting mis-spelled, mispronounced, etc. One person even asked if there was a Mr. McMongoose home! I got a chuckle and a character pic out of that one!
I'll really should post that some time. *gigglez*

[Indi]

*laughes* My real name is ALWAYS spelled wrong, cause there's about about 3 or 4 was to spell it. Then my last name is spelled wrong to, cause there's there's 3 ways to spell that.

No body's really spelled my online name wrong though. Sort hard, I guess. But then again, I would have thought Darkwillow would have been easy to spell too.... The only problem I have is people mixing me up with Indigo. ^_^

[arborwin]

I get "Arbowin" and "Abowin" and "Arbowin" etc.

[Dawby]

There was a while following the Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets huzzah that people I was introduced to in RL thought it was Dobbie like the elf. But online it's usually spelt mostly right. As long as the "Dawb" is in there, I don't care what sort of creative suffix is tacked on there. In fact, I often tack on my own creative suffixes!! ;D My last name in RL, though, is both mispronounced and misspelled. Nowik - looks easy, right?? But everyone seems to think I don't know how to spell my name right and I always see it spelled "Nowick." Not to mention that the W in there is pronounced like a V - Polishness, and all... Okay, I'm done now.

[Leafy]

Leafy is always alright, though any version of Leafy is accepted, Yfael, Yf', Leafers, etc. As for my real name, Alethea is the correct way, but it's been spelled Althea, Alethua, Alrethia, Urethea, all kinds of ways >_< It's also pronounced "Uh-lee-thee-uh" but it's almost always pronounced (unless I've yelled at you), Al-thee-uh. -_-;;; Jade and Smith are universal though ;

[Dawby]

lol - Leaf-chan, you have to marry someone with a really fancy, like, French last name or something and change your name. Alethea Jade is such a gorgeous, unique name and Smith is so common. I mean, nothing wrong with common, but I just think it's funny!

Edit:: Oo! Oo! I knew someone once with the last name Phoenix. Alethea Jade Phoenix would be cool!!

[Leafy]

yeah that would *_*

but sadly, my boyfriend's last name is also Smith XD; I'm doomed XD;;;

woah.. that's kinda weird.

[Leafy]

lol, not really n_n you have a 50% chance of meeting people with the last name Smith, Jones, or Rodruguez than anything else XD;;;

[Thalron]

My last name is misspelled and misspronounced alot >.> <.<;; One of the more amusing (and sadly common) pronunciation is 'Bobwithsushi' XD or bo-buh-dee-swish-ee...

The real thing is pretty different though, but I'm not going to post it up here XD;

[zelda324]

My last name gets mixxed up sometimes they want to put a K instead of C^^;;

but I made a recent mistake in a rp which turned out a good nicknameXD Tigress (a serain owned by Lumi) well I was typing to fast and I some how got the name Tigree instead^^;;heh

but really online and off line I don't get that much of a mix up cause who could not get zelda right o.O;; but people can't spell my middle name right because one letter was taken out so its a little different and it gets spelled wrong even I didn't know for a while though XD

[Belladandy]

As far as I can remember "Leela" has been spelled correctly. My other name "Feyna" has however, been spelled "Feya" at one time

And in a RPG I had a character named "Riss" which (and it was actually the owner of the RPG ;D) another player kept calling her "Triss" and this lasted for several postings. Mostly becouse I got a huge kick out of it.

Acording to what the player told me she got the name "Riss" mixed up with the character "Triss" from a Redwall book

[Sith Lord FP]

Well...people call me Sith >.> and my internet name is NOT sith...its FLYINGPANTHER....but other then that XD no name mispellings...

oh well...in RL im almost always called Ariel like the little mermaid....but my name is pronounced ARR-E-ELL. People have also called me Aria....and spelled my name that way...and spelled my name Ariel and Ariell. My last name, Guthrie has only been mis pronounced once...Guh-three is how its pronounced...Gooth-ree is how they pronounced it once...
