Why is it no one can get my name right? Vicky, Peggy, Betty......It's BECKY!!!!!
Re: Name
While I am on a rampage about my name....since I changed my last name I figured oh great this will be so much easier 4 letters......Do you know I have to spell my last night every single time I tell someone.
I am pmsing can anyone tell. lol
Oh I have this same complaint all the time. It really pisses me off in emails. Look in the "to" line - my name is spelled out right there in my email address. Why on earth would you write Melissa or Marsha?
LOL I like this! I will call you Wendy from now on.
Hardly anyone knows how to pronounce my full name(Linnea) - but I don't really blame them and I'm used to it.
I've given my son a difficult name though too, poor guy. Someone yesterday thought I said "Katelyn" instead if Caedmon.
Granted my first name is unusual, but I've gotten some weird variations as well. Some are close: Marissa, Marsha, etc. Some are not: Rachel, HORATIO (I'm not kidding).
sometimes i get "steph" which i kind of understand... but this is a weird one.. and it's happened more than 5 times.
"it's a great day here at ____, this is beth."
"oh hi, sarah. can i have patty?"
um, sure?
the weird part is my first name IS sarah.
