when my daughter was 3 she wanted to learn to spell her name. i told her it was spelled "M-O-N-K-E-Y"... about a year later, she wanted to learn to write it out... i had to 'fess up on that.

Joni

The name 'Emma' was spelt 'M'

Dee

That my nickname could be spelled backwards or forwards. So half of the time I signed my pictures "OLOL"

My mom made a song when I was little called Chrissy "Bear". I got very confused and used to think and tell people that my last name was Bear. I insisted that it was and my pre school teacher had to call my mom to ask if my last name was really different then hers.

Chrissy C

I used to believe that when you hit adulthood that you had to change your name to something like Betty or Anne, because little kids aren't called names like that.

Jill

When I was little and my sister was just learning to write, I taught her that the proper spelling of her name was Katiewxyz. She spelt it like that for quite a while.

I believed that my anorak was in fact an "Annarack" and therefore named after me! So, by default, you could have a "Katherinerack", a "Beckyrack" or a "Simonrack"
