The guiness book of records had an entry for the worst spelling in the old days before the book was dumbed down. Trying to spell 'usage' the incorrect attempt was youzitch achieving only one correct letter.

Does using French count? Then I nominate "eau". Impressive 300% bloat, 0 correct letters.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

I present to you the plural : eaux 400% bloat still 0correct letters

There's a girl in my kid's class named Eighmee. Pronounced "Amy". I thought it was weird but there's a street in a neighboring town named Eighmee Street.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Wow. So maybe it wasn't an "I'm so new and unique" Traighdiegh. I wonder what the history of Eighmee Street is.

How can it be legal to literally name your kid an insult? Child protection gotta intervene.

I once met a girl called Xinhergi

Who thrived on late-night energy.

She’d moan and she’d grind,

With a very keen mind

For positions defying liturgy.

"Breighdone" (Brayden) is probably the most egregious one I haven't brain-bleached yet.

My friend works in the billing department of a local hospital, and she will occasionally text me some crazy spellings she comes across.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

yeah that's literally a HIPAA violation lol

esp if the spelling is that unique, it's definitely identifying info

Not so much the spelling, just... I went to school with a girl who's father fled the law and they ended up near us in Canada... they were originally from a trailer park in Tennessee

Her name was "Dollarina"

T'Fanny for Tiffany. She's about 30 now, so that was a bad decision from a long time ago.

[–] [email protected] 74 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (3 children)

T'Fanny sounds like the name of a Vulcan stripper lol.

I used to know an Alyssa whose name was pronounced like Alicia. Her parents went let's give her one name but spell it just like another name.
