My DD received a lovely personalised photo frame from her cousin to comemmorate her birth. Unfortunately her name has been misspelt, it says Cecelia instead of Cecilia. Obviously we are very grateful for this generous gesture and will thank the recipient regardless. I was just wondering, should we mention the misspelling incase it was the fault of the company that produced it, or just keep quiet? Does it even matter?

If it was the fault of the company then surely whoever bought it would have had it fixed or at least mentioned it to you. I don't think it matters too much and sounds like a lovely thought so I'd just leave it.

If it came direct from the company then I suppose you could phone them up and make discreet enquiries - if it turned out it was their mistake they may offer to rectify it.

What a shame.
I think I might make discreet enquiries with the company too.
I think whatever you do, you will probably always look at it & feel a tiny bit sad/ disappointed. Not quite the right words but can't think of right one!

Trouble is, the cousin will always get the spelling wrong now. If they realised further down the line, there might be an awkward conversation to be had?
It's a difficult one isn't it? Not much help - sorry!

might it have been arranged on the phone & the company got it wrong?

I think I would say something to the cousin, along the lines of "it's a beautiful frame, we love it & it was so thoughtful but they spelt her name wrong"
