The New York Times has a section called "Complaint Box" and a month ago a complaint was filed about kr8tyve spellings.
"I saw a birth announcement the other day and groaned. In recent years, I’d learned to accept the flood of trendy tots named Madison, but this was my first Madicyn. If you care about spelling, my advice is to pour yourself a stiff drink before untying that pink or blue ribbon and reading news of the blessed event."
The illustration is hilarious and there's a separate section on the website where people are commenting on the same phenomenon.
Here are the jewels i saw as i scanned:
