I used to work with someone who changed a letter for their child’s name, then posted on Facebook moaning cause people spelt it the correct way (Not the way they had spelt it.), in the comments someone posted how they had deliberately spelt their child’s name some different way and were complaining that everyone was spelling it properly. Can’t remember either names or spellings now, this was well over a decade ago.
Comment on What's the worst spelling you've seen?

Cultural thing too. Sometimes words in their language are translated weirdly.
