BoredPanda staff Publish Not your original work? Add source While baristas at Starbucks get a bad rep for misspelling people's names-seemingly quite deliberately-it would be quite unfair to say that they are at fault here. Some have unique names, others have common names that are spelled differently, and there are also communication barriers, like outside noise that make you mishear things. Whatever the case, many of us have had our names butchered at some point in our lives, and in some of these cases it turned out hilarious. Image Credits: SummerRay People on the Twitterscape have been sharing stories of how their names were misspelled, misheard, or flat-out ridiculed, whether accidentally or not, and the answers are sure to make you crack up, so keep on scrolling to see a curated list of some of the best stories found. Oh, and don't forget to vote and comment!

Hate that stupid thing 105 105points reply View More Replies... View more comments So, Twitter user Summer Ray (not to be confused with model Sommer Ray) asked the good people of Twitter to share stories of the grief that people's names have given them. She also shared a story about her own name, Sarah, saying that one might think it's a safe enough name, but on more occasions than she can count she's sent emails with a sign-off that had her name mischievously corrected to "Satan." And you bet people delivered their best responses! #2 hannahchrstina Report Final score: 376points POST Vicky Z Vicky Z Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago So you can never be a spy..... 134 134points reply View More Replies...

And there certainly were cases like this in Summer Ray's thread: names like Fuchsia and Audhan were definitely out there to be ridiculed, whether deliberately or not. But there were also regular names, like Sarah and Ross, that were quite a head-scratch as to how anyone can butcher them. Well, turns out, Stan and Rock are a thing-spellcheck and phones primarily being the culprit here. #6 MiseryVulture Report Final score: 312points POST Kennedy Johnson Kennedy Johnson Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago I have a friend named vijayashrisha. we just called her Vijay. 83 83points reply View More Replies...

Anyway every year she would spell my name wrong but not the same way every year. She did a mix between 4 variations over the years and not one of them is the correct spelling lol. Honestly my name is super simple. It's not odd, spelt weird etc. Anyway it was a good giggle, every year trying to guess if she got it right, she would even wait in anticipation. One year, and I mean ONE year she got it right. She was so happy Lol. I didn't care that she got my name wrong.

35 People On Twitter Share Funny Or Ridiculous Problems That Their Names Cause Them
Robertas LisickisBoredPanda staff Publish Not your original work? Add source While baristas at Starbucks get a bad rep for misspelling people's names-seemingly quite deliberately-it would be quite unfair to say that they are at fault here. Some have unique names, others have common names that are spelled differently, and there are also communication barriers, like outside noise that make you mishear things. Whatever the case, many of us have had our names butchered at some point in our lives, and in some of these cases it turned out hilarious. Image Credits: SummerRay People on the Twitterscape have been sharing stories of how their names were misspelled, misheard, or flat-out ridiculed, whether accidentally or not, and the answers are sure to make you crack up, so keep on scrolling to see a curated list of some of the best stories found. Oh, and don't forget to vote and comment!

Hate that stupid thing 105 105points reply View More Replies... View more comments So, Twitter user Summer Ray (not to be confused with model Sommer Ray) asked the good people of Twitter to share stories of the grief that people's names have given them. She also shared a story about her own name, Sarah, saying that one might think it's a safe enough name, but on more occasions than she can count she's sent emails with a sign-off that had her name mischievously corrected to "Satan." And you bet people delivered their best responses! #2 hannahchrstina Report Final score: 376points POST Vicky Z Vicky Z Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago So you can never be a spy..... 134 134points reply View More Replies...

And there certainly were cases like this in Summer Ray's thread: names like Fuchsia and Audhan were definitely out there to be ridiculed, whether deliberately or not. But there were also regular names, like Sarah and Ross, that were quite a head-scratch as to how anyone can butcher them. Well, turns out, Stan and Rock are a thing-spellcheck and phones primarily being the culprit here. #6 MiseryVulture Report Final score: 312points POST Kennedy Johnson Kennedy Johnson Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago I have a friend named vijayashrisha. we just called her Vijay. 83 83points reply View More Replies...

Honestly my name is super simple. It's not odd, spelt weird etc. Anyway it was a good giggle, every year trying to guess if she got it right, she would even wait in anticipation.
