I work with someone who's name is Bonny, and her pet peeve is "people that mis-spell my name"....if you spelled it like everyone else,
B-O-N-N-I-E, you wouldn't have to worry about it, would you?
I also hate when people have last names that they try to match up with the first name. I went to school with a Penny Nichols and a Robert Roberts. Why would you do that to your kid? |

I once went to elementary school with a kid who claimed to be Persian (in the late 70s).
It wasn't until later that I found out he was Iranian. |

ETA: I'm not sure why the link isn't working, but there's a whole list of names there that people supposedly have, but PROBABLY don't.

I think my most hated is Kayla. It is Kay with la. Just sounds dumb. And I know a girl who named her son Kori. That makes me giggle everytime I type it.

Jayme or Jaime instead of Jamie.* Jayme is stupid but I always thought that Jamie was the boy spelling and Jaime was the girl spelling of the name. *Going backa bit to the 2 Timothy's ...I once knew twins named Alanna and Ilana. It wasn't that bad since Alanna went by Lani (pronounced Loni). *Oh and I used to know a Graig (greg) which is basically Craig w/ a G. This has nothing to do w/ retarded spellings but I despise names like Naveah, Destiny, Angel and Crystal. Disgusting. |

The girl that checked out my groceries at Safeway the other day was named Brittknee. It actually took me a second to see what the fuck that was supposed to be.

Today in the newspaper there was a story about a local school having 29 sets of twins. One set of identicals had the names Kellie and Kattie. Now see, I would
want to call the second one Catty. Not Katie.
And then there were the boys named Phillip and Felipe. Yeah, I know they are pronounced differently, but how lazy does one have to be when naming a kid? I just hate all the names that end in "leigh" when it should just be "lee" or "ley" or "lie". Screw that silent letter crap. Or spelling Morgan like Morghan. That also goes for all the Kh business when a plain ol K would suffice, like Khori for Cory, or Khandi for Candy. |
