what do you think about taking common names and spelling them differently?

one of my best friends is named aishliee mahryee and while i like how the name looks i can help but think how rediculous it is. she also has four older brothers named nykolas jayms, anndryw jihonn, evyn scot and wiate danyle. all four of them however have changed the spelling of their names back to the traditional spelling.

I think it's possibly the dumbest thing you could do to your child.

I'm not talking about the difference between like Eric and Erik, which are both acceptable spellings. I'm talking about completely butchering the names. Aishliee doesn't even look like it ought to be pronounced the proper way. It looks like Aysh-lie-ee instead of Ahsh-lee.
