do any of you hate this...?

[angeljewel]

My son is called Evan and when he went for his first injections the women asked for Even, is that even a name lmao!!!

 

[Sophie1205]

Yep! All the time. I say his name is LEO, and they say "Aww Liam!"

Sighhhh x

Nobody gets my full name wrong- Nicole- but they seem shocked when I just introduce myself as Nic. Soooo many people refuse to call me Nic, so I get "Nicole" or "Nikkie" which annoys the crap out of me! It's Nic dammit! lol

My husband gets it so much worse though! His name is Bee, and people look at him completely blank and usually ask if it's a nickname, his initials, or spelled as just the letter B!

I suppose it just goes to show it happens to most people!

My name is Tamsin and I get called Tasmin LOADS....when I correct people they say things like "but why do you spell it like that?" Aaaargh...it's a different name...not that ridiculous surely?

I've also had people think it's Townsend a fair few times, even Candy! I'm sure there's more, can't think at the mo.

Depends how i introduce myself! If i say Pip everyone says 'huh?' and if i say 'philippa' then people call me jennifer. It is annoying.

My baby is going to be called Isabella, and there is no way people who mis-hear that... right?!

My youngest is Isabella and people are always calling her Isabel. Drives me nuts. Poor Gemma is always getting called Emma too...

[cymrufaerie]
