[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nick names on official documents are a big peeve for me. [b]Half the names are ethnic nowadays so who cares about a difficult spelling?[/b][/quote] As someone with a name that would be considered “ethnic” (Arabic), it’s awful. I’ve given fake common names (Lucy, Abby, Anna, Maddie) and noticed how much better I get treated compared to when I use my real name. (I think it’s because my real name makes people think I’m a foreigner.) I’ve vowed to give my own kids simple names. I’m not sure I’d want to have a more common name that wasn’t easily spellable either.[/quote]
