Spellings

[decembermalice.livejournal.com]

What are some of the worst spellings of names you've ever seen?

Mine are:

Kyly (Kylie, from a TV show.)
Linzy (Lindsay, a friend's sister.)
Isreal (Israel, from the Maury show.)

Kleighton (Clayton)~ my sister-in-law's ex-best friend's 2nd child.

[decembermalice.livejournal.com]

Wow...that's impressively bad...I didn't read it as Clayton at ALL.

[levis-jules.livejournal.com]

Horrible isn't it? All these girls were pregnant and doing the whole "leigh" naming for their girls (ie: Kyleigh, Kayleigh), and I guess this girl felt left out b/c she had 2 boys. Who knows.

I feel like it should be pronounced Kleeton and be the name of an alien race from a science fiction movie!

[levis-jules.livejournal.com]

LMAO- that's how I feel too. Although when I think of Kleeton I think of Cletus for some reason, so I always associate this kid w/ Cletus. I feel bad for him- he's only like 2.5ish right now- but school will be rough!

I saw a really bad Brittany - Britnii or something like that.

[decembermalice.livejournal.com]

Ouch! I knew a Brittnee once - I forgot about that one!

ahlica. no joke, they called her "alisha." i was like, "uh-lick-uh?" it was the daughter of one of the women i met at a playgroup.

[levis-jules.livejournal.com]

oh you made me LOL. That is really bad though.

[decembermalice.livejournal.com]

Wow...it wouldn't even be spelled right if you moved letters around...well, sort of - but Alicha still wouldn't be good.

I have a friend who wants to name her son "Ian" spelt "Aeon."

[rubytitania.livejournal.com]

LMAO!

[miss-tee.livejournal.com]

but Aeon Flux was a chick!

Hahah I have a friend named Iain [which most people don't spell correctly anyway] and the other day someone spelled it "EAN".

I met a man named Linzi today... quite interesting.

[confusedanswers.livejournal.com]

im sorry it's lenzi... I'm sleep at 1 am~

[xanya.livejournal.com]

A friend of mine used to babysit a little boy called Rhyleigh...

[miss-tee.livejournal.com]

ok "Isreal" what????
I have to believe these people just didn't know how to spell Israel.

It's like naming your kid Micheal.

[decembermalice.livejournal.com]

I've seen plenty of that on the Maury show too. Someone should really watch Maury one day and make a post of all the names on the show.

[composure.livejournal.com]

Hah, I just commented about knowing a Micheal!

[miss-tee.livejournal.com]

yikes

[blush.livejournal.com]

I saw an Aedeyn (Aiden) in someones lj info the other day. Probably one of the worst spellings IMO to that particular name I've seen in awhile... which is surprising since I swear every fifth parent is naming their kid Aiden these days.

[decembermalice.livejournal.com]

That reminds me! I forgot Aliceyn (Allison) from American Idol a few seasons ago!

[composure.livejournal.com]

Linzy is horrible!

[composure.livejournal.com]

Oh, and I know a Micheal.

[ahmunnaeetchu.livejournal.com]

Me too... :\

I know a guy named lendsie (lindsey). But I guess it's a family name?

[decembermalice.livejournal.com]

There was a guy named Lindsay on Next on MTV as well.
