This happened today, actually, my name was written “Phillip” on a receipt. For one, it’s “Philip,” one L, and really, I prefer to be “Phil” anyway. Haven’t gone by “Philip” since grade school.

Shapcott. It’s not hard. Shap-Cott. But noooooooo! Shatcott, Shipcott, Shapcolt. Shitcott. Shapcock. If you can think of it, they have probably messed it up.

Mine’s not, but my daughter’s is. Her name is Alannah and everyone pronounces it “Uh-LAY-nuh” or “Uh-LAN-uh” instead of “Uh-LAW-nuh”
