An absolute shocker for you all here.
One of the girls in my little sisters class (11/12 year olds) is called:

Chellc

why ruin a perfectly good name like Chelsea with such a hideous spelling?

me too, this is the same school where there is a chloii, a tee-jay, a DJ (where the letters don't actually stand for anything) and in my year (I left a year ago) there was a boy called Beau-Jangles

[sian-y.livejournal.com]

[deer-lanterns.livejournal.com]

That's begging to become a hamster name. Oh dear.

Beau-Jangles? Like a classier version of the fried chicken joint???

[sian-y.livejournal.com]

if i hadn't known that it was Chelsea, i would have said it Chelk as well.

[thismakebelieve.livejournal.com]

Wow, this is really getting somewhat out of control isn't it.

[schexyschteve.livejournal.com]

LETTERS DON'T WORK THAT WAY!

The English language -- learn it.

[skittles22088.livejournal.com]

LOL. Her name is Chelk! Poor kid.

[night-sky-dream.livejournal.com]

Wow I would not have known that was pronounced 'Chelsea'. *Shakes head*

[cremepuff.livejournal.com]

I'm telling you, it's Hooked on Phonics' fault.

[monkey-fruit.livejournal.com]

Lol, I didn't get that it was supposed to be Chelsea. ^^;
Chelk. *nods*

[brunhildevalkyr.livejournal.com]

[unicornonthecob.livejournal.com]

WUT

[a-tergo-lupi.livejournal.com]

horrible.

[solitudete.livejournal.com]

[mrssubee.livejournal.com]

before I read the entire post - I pronounced that -chelk- in my head- one syllable
poor kid

[sallymn.livejournal.com]

Ahh, the lolspeak generation...

[krosp.livejournal.com]

AHAHAHAA

I just read it as "Chelk"
ewww

When I realised what it was meant to be it was so ridiculous I laughed. I hope it's just a teenage nickname she's made up for herself, not her actual spelling.
