    My grandma has always been a shocker for my name - I have childhood letters from her with every conceivable combination of 'n's and 'f's.

    What annoys me about unusual spellings is that we deliberately chose the most common way to spell our DD's name and I'm constantly questioned as to whether it has a 'y' or an 'ie' anyway!

    Jen - I never used to be questioned about the y - ie thing, only in recent years...
