I had a customer once at an old job whose name was spelled Deborah. Seems completely normal until she got super mad at me for calling her "Debra" because I was somehow supposed to know her name was pronounced "Deb-Or-Ah". With the "Or" being stressed.

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.

Parents of Richards are very upset by this.

It's an Indian name, so the spelling is a bit weird.
