So my last name is Jaime, which could also be a first name. CLEARLY when I write an email to someone and it says "Leslie M. Jaime" in the signature, it means my first name is Leslie, NOT Jaime!! Why is that so hard for people? I really, really want to go off on people who call me Jaime. <end rant>

Does anyone else have similar problems?

    I get called Elaine A LOT! Or another one is Eliana

    My name is Elaina. I don't understand the complexity of pronunciation with that spelling. Teachers would even pronounce the 'i' before the 'a' at school...drove me mad.
