i really have to agree. in the end, its more trouble for the kid, having to always tell everyone how to spell it.
examples:
Tayna (pronounced Tanya)- this girl got so much sh*t for this in high school, people would say it wrong or assume it was a typo and she would have to correct them
Krystl (Crystal, Krystal) - I was her best friend for 3+ years, and it took me at least 2 to learn how to spell it
