[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My grandmother, so my kids' great-grandmother, misspells my daughter's name and doesn't pronounce it quiet right either, but it's not on purpose and the name is in a language she's not familiar with, so I think she's doing well considering her age. No offense taken on my part. Your situation is different though OP. I don't think I'd do anything about it, or say anything, but surely the kids notice, or will soon, and if they speak up on their own - without prompting - I wouldn't stop them from pointing it out. [/quote] Ditto. Our kids have names that are slightly uncommon in English but were a good compromise between my and my partner's cultures. My own parents occasionally misspell one of the names, and it took them months to consistently remember the youngest's. It's not passive aggressive. They are just old and learning something new.[/quote]
