[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have two friends who are Brian and one who is Bryan. I swear to God I cannot remember which one is which. I'm getting it wrong constantly.[/quote] Ah, the highly embarrassing story about how I discovered I'd been misspelling a coworker's name for months. We had two Bryans at work but I'd seen one mostly in print and mostly heard the name of the other. I probably saw his name in print several times but never processed the spelling. Then in a big meeting, we began discussing "Bryan" and of course I asked if it was the Bryan with a 'y' or the Brian with an 'i'. TL;DR: Don't assume malicious intent. People make mistakes like this all the time, especially if they're a more auditory person. [/quote]
