[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a Sara in a world of Sarah’s. I hated it as a kid but I don’t care one way or the other anymore. Sometimes people will ask which is nice and I just tell them I’m a four letter word Sara. For some reason a lot of people want to call me sally and that’s a total WTF for me—like did I get in a time machine and go back to 1947? It’s not really about you, but if it bothers you, feel free too correct it in the first line of your reply to the email. I try hard to spell peoples names correctly, probably because of my life with a no traditional name spelling, but most people aren’t detail oriented enough to care. [/quote]

+1. I don't get worked up over the spelling at all, but it's kind of nice when people ask. It's so commonly misspelled I barely notice at this point and I just don't have the mental bandwidth to care about something so insignificant.

SO nice when people ask

-Anne (with an e)[/quote]

OP here. Fine. I'm also Anne with E.

Yes, I've made jokes about the show/books to be kind about people spelling it correctly. I get blank looks.[/quote]

Yeah, Anne, there's just not that much to be done about it.  I'm Carolyn but people often go with Caroline.  I barely notice anymore; I just think of them as two different variations of the same name and don't sweat it.  Life's too short to let stuff like this bother you.  [/quote]
