This could be complicated, bear with me. DD1 goes by a nickname which is unusual, but is well known and spelt with the well known spelling. Her actual given name is uncommon even in its own culture, which does not use the Latin alphabet. Therefore when written in the Latin alphabet the way DD1s name is spelt, it looks like a syllable should be pronounced slightly differently than it actually is. DD1s nickname starts with the same syllable and is spelt the way its pronounced. Nickname is on her books, peg etc at school but given name is on school records.
I've had an email from school about DD1 which refers to her by her given name, with an extra letter in it so its spelt the way its pronounced. So it's spelt wrong. We have been through this with them over report cards etc when she first started at this school over a year ago, they did amend it on their records because it's been fine ever since. Would it be really petty to email back and point out the misspelling?
