    Well so long as you're okay correcting people if they say it different to how you want - I say spell it the way you want to! A lot of people pronounce my name wrong but I've grown so used to it I automatically correct as they speak - it's especially funny if they're talking at me and not listening, I end up repeating myself a lot until they go "Whaaaaat?" It's just one of those things for me, no big deal. Just keep the spelling consistent lol - My mum was really tired when I was named, so when the nurses asked how to spell it, she reeled off what sounded right off the top of her head. Then spelt it differently in all the birth announcements to family The spelling the nurses took ended up being the way it's been spelt since then (apart from people who seem to go off what the birth announcement said 23 years ago!)

    ... Oh dear, I've made this about me. I'm sorry. I was attempting to give you a boost lol
