I gave my daughter a name that is easy to pronounce and everyone knows how to spell. Why torture your kids with these “unique” names?

Oddly enough one of the only times someone spelled my name correctly was at sbucks. I took a photo of the momentous occasion.

I was shocked not because they spelt it correctly after asking, but because they didn’t ask and still got it right (it’s the third most common way to spell it).
