People spell my name wrong. Always. Constantly. It's gotten to the point where I don't correct it unless it's, like, an official form or something. Just not worth the effort. However, it's still a VARIANT of my name and not something else entirely. THAT would drive me nuts.

Once people suss out that my last name is one I married into, 95% of the time I get people who "quiz" me on how to spell it and/or ask how long it took to learn how to spell it. You know, I'm not four. I can learn to spell words. Even names! Even names that have more than 5 letters!
