[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know a woman whose name is Ericka. Born in 1964, white, etc. And her name was a total PITA because in the 1960s, 70s and 80s (our college years), Erica is spelled Erica. Not Erika, Ericka, Eryka, etc - her parents wanted to be different, so they spelled her name differently, and she HATES it, because it gets mispelled 100% of the time. If you want to name your child Bennett, Apple, Crosby, that's great - I love those names.. But don't spell Susan like Susyn, etc![/quote] Eh. My name is Katherine and you wouldn't believe how it's been spelled. Not just the standard other variants (Kathryn, Catherine) but Kathlin, Kathryne, Catheryn, etc. To say nothing of the gazillion nicknames people try to apply, none of which I use. You can misspell almost anything if you try hard enough.[/quote]
