A 6yo in a grade 1 class that I had the "pleasure" of teaching yesterday...

Modystie.

Thoughts?

Oy.

I think it's ironic that 'modesty' is spelled in a stripper-esque way.

Lol, for a while there, I couldn't figure out how to read it... >_>
Anyway, yeah, it's horrible.

I didn't figure out how to read it until I read the comments, and someone showed their work for me, lol. Horrendous.

Aw. I don't have a problem with names being spelled unconventionally. I just feel bad knowing how others are probably going to treat the child in the future.

Nice. ;)
I've had some interesting once lately in my subbing escapades, too.

On Wednesday I taught girls named Australia and Infinity.
Yesterday I had a female student named Magenta.

If you're going to use a 'word' name, you HAVE GOT to spell it properly.

Judging by the use of quotations over the word pleasure, I'm assuming this child's personality was the opposite of his/her name.
