Help[Opinions] Re: Hevyn!?
in reply to a message by *Brogan*
Not a name that I would use, but the pronunciation is fairly obvious. It would be possible to pronounce that spelling as "Hee-vin", but I doubt if very many people will ever make that mistake.
There are quite a few people who believe that when one is converting a common vocabulary word into a child's name that one should give it a different spelling, because in their mind that's what differentiates the "word" from the "name".

Disagree.
It makes your life even more miserable. I had a common vocabulary word for a name - and being able to say "spelt just like the word" made life easier.
Mispelling a name just makes you look ignortant, period.

Were "Mispelling" and "ignortant" deliberate? :) That's the funniest spelled comment I've seen in a long time.

Well,.
I don't think Siri intended to misspell those words, but it did make for a pretty snappy response, didn't it? :o)
Married male co-worker: "Wanna come over to my place for lunch today?"
Me: "Thanks, but I don't think that would be appropriate."
Him: "What do you think I'm gonna do, lure you into the bedroom with a hotdog?"
(Pause)
Him: "Ok, bad analogy."

Occasionally, I can make funny mistakes...especially when I switch words.
