cisserz Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Do you have a hard to pronounce name? Are you irritated by all the versions of your name you get? Post it here! I'll start: My name is Cicely. [sis-il-eee] It's hard to spell and say, here are SOME of what I've heard and seen: Cecily Sisily Sosily (?!) etc. Fire away!

purplegrape Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 my first name isn't hard to pronounce but everyone seems to forget it easily and end up calling me Amanda instead of Amber I personally don't see the connection. My last name is apparently impossible to pronounce though. Only one teacher out of my 14 years of scholl has pronounced it correctly My last name is Clidinst [cl-eye-din-st] I think it's pretty easy but I've gotten Cl-in-din-st, usually Clin-din-st (I dunno where they get the extra 'n' from ) and once even Cl-in-din-st-y I've generally given up at this point. I just let people call me whatever they want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tayler Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 I always have people spell my name wrong, or call me something else Tayler. Pronounced the same it's spelt, tay-ler. But I get called 'Tyler' and some people spell it: Taylor Tyler Tayla Taylar Even some of my family spell it 'Taylor'. So I just say call me what you want and spell it how you want. It doesn't bother me like it used to It only annoys me when people say 'Tyler' to my face. It happens quite a bit. That's not my name It doesn't bother me if it is spelt wrong on here though, for some reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
