My child is special so nobody should spell their name the same way

What if the same name has different spellings ?
And a name is a name, it doesn't usually have a set spelling because it's not a solid word.

A friend of mine has a name in the Delaware language. Everyone spells it wrong. Are you saying all the non-speaking mother fuckers are right about how to spell a native name?

Yeah- sometimes people get pretentious with names, sometimes it can be annoying when “Æêathāñ’s” mom won’t stop gabbing about where she got her inspirations, or why it’s so much better than just “Ethan.” But asides the many cultural or other reasons- people express themselves and often attach significance to names. If the kid doesn’t like it they can change it at 18. There are pros and cons to less common names- no need to be a jerk about people’s choices, but also no need to get all frazzled when someone spells or mispronounces a name that isn’t common- everyone has to learn a first time.

I think it's ironic that the asshole tweeting this statement spells 'Todd'...'Tod'. Is this guy the pot or the kettle? Guess his parents spelled his name wrong...

A girl I know in Colorado is named Semla. Her parents saw a swedish name and misspelled it, lol. Selma is a name, but Semla is a confection

My name is common enough where I’m from but now that I’ve moved it’s misspelled.
