I saw a guy at a coffee shop and his name tag read "Chyane". I had to ask him...his name is pron "Shane" and actually spelled that way...ugh.

Looks like the male version of Cheyenne to me. Yuck.

Ew! Even worse than the variation of Shane that I saw at work today: Shayne. I suppose it's not too bad, but it looks like a feminized version, and I'm pretty sure this Shayne was a boy (it was for two birthday cakes - one said Happy Birthday Shayne and the other said Happy Birthday Shayne and Andrea - and I could have sworn she pronounced Andrea like Andrew. But I'm going to hope that was just my ears).

And people made fun of me for asking how "Cheyne" was pronounced a few months ago... this is so much worse! (fyi, I wasn't asking about Cheyne because I liked it, I was asking because I didn't know if it was supposed to be Cheyenne or Shane. But apparently some people think if I ask about a name, I MUST like it so they made fun of me anyway).
