Totally unusal spellings for common names?

[WeOnlyWantToBeOurselves]

I was just wondering what unusual spellings of totally common names that you have heard. I've come across a Khatlynne and an Ezykile.

I've taught Jilly-Ann and Lizzy-Beth, the more interesting cousins of Jillian and Elizabeth

Yes I've come across Jorja too, more than once. And Jorgie.
A little girl named Ornree (pn Henri, the French pronunciation) - she told me her name is French....

I know of a Jennyfir...

I've met a Ryleigh.
Also Jessyka, Tayla and Leighum. (Liam)

Destoni

I can't stand these silly spellings - reminds me of when I was in secondary school and half the girls in my year were called Chelsea, so they all started making up "special" ways to spell their names. We ended up with a Shelziie somewhere. I honestly highly doubt the emotional maturity of a person who feels the need to call their offspring "Khatlynne"

Ema-Leigh.

Deyzi - pronounced Daisy.
Apparently it's the French spelling - I'm not convinced!

French my arse.

The French word for Daisy is marguerite, and therefore the name Marguerite is the French equivalent, although it's considered a French form of Margaret. In turn that is why Daisy is sometimes used as a nickname for Margaret.

Quite so, Cordelia. I'm still in shock. I've never met a French, or an English for that matter, Deyzi.

Daisy is from an old english word if course (I can't remember the spelling of that one but Im sure there's a 'g' in it) meaning 'day's eye' obviously because daisy flowers open in the day time.

Ornee is ridiculous too And nonsense

MrsPremise I know a misspelt Lily-hyphen name too, wonder if it's the same illiterate mother?

I know a Gemmimah

It boils my piss when I see Tyla, Summa, Frayr type names. It just screams "my parents can't spell OR speak properly"! I don't even think I could manage to say Fray-er without having to think really hard about it.

I've got no idea what Ezykile is meant to be either. Can anybody shed any light?

I'm reading it as Ez-eye-kyle.

I scrolled all the way through to.see if someone knew what ezykile, or whatever it was, was.

no such luck!

It's supposed to Ezekiel longlist and Norfolk

I've seen a Leisa (Lisa) and Sera (Sarah however she is Turkish so that's probably why) also Cera.

I had someone sign their name Amiee and thought they must have typed it to quickly and therefore mis-spelled it but no it's Amiee.

The name Ezekiel is a Hebrew baby name. In Hebrew the meaning of the name Ezekiel is: God strengthens. Biblical Ezekiel was a prophet among the captives taken to Babylon at the first fall of Jerusalem who wrote the Book of Ezekiel in captivity.

This is the common spellings of the name that I first posted. Ezykile. For those of you that asked. ^^ It is up there in the first paragraph.

I know of a girl who spells her name Aaryka, but that is just horrible. HazleNutt

These names are all pretty bad.

I have a Schnell at work. I thought it might be German or similar when I'd only seen it written down but no - Chanel it is!

That is an awful way of spelling Chanel. :(

Alfee instead of Alfie

I can only offer Jorjah and Summa.

Loving this thread!

There's a family in my home country that decided to call their son John. Nice, internationally known name and all. Unfortunately the dad was sent to register the baby, and he got it slightly wrong. In that country, it's also expensive and complicated to change names, so the kid will be Jhon for the foreseeable future..

Jorja is a common spelling in parts of Europe, I think. Though it may be pronounced differently.

I dont think so mamalazarou, it wouldnt make sense in any European language I can think of.

My name -- Natalija. Next one who tries to pronounce it other than Natalia, will get their teeth kicked in
