Not just a "y" not an "ie", it is EY! The right way to spell it.

1. Can I assume people constantly misspell your name?
:D

People misspell my name all the time too.

3. I won't even get into the last name. It is 10 letters and 6 of them are vowels.

5. My last name is three letters, and no one ever wants to believe it's that simple.
I'm with you!

14. My last name is very unusual and DUer swag guessed it
a long time ago and it freaked me out. There are less than 5 families in the US with the name. I thought he must know me. But he was just a good guesser!!

12. I shan't
I make the effort to get names right, partly because it's a journalism thing and partly because people have been spelling my last name wrong all my life.

10. .....
My name is Michelle - but more people than not, called me "Shelley". And yes - my yearbooks are filled with that same exact spelling. :)

21. Aw!! Thanks so much! Now if people would quit naming their animals
Bella!!

Everytime I tell someone her name, they say "oh, my so-in-so's dog is Bella"!!! AAAHHHH! I tried to be somewhat unique with her naime and failed!!!! Oh well! Bella Rose means Beautiful Rose. Her last name means Beautiful sunshine. So it is a pretty combo!
