This is actaully a belief from a boy I used to babysit who spent a lot of time playing on computers. When asked how to spell his name (which was also the passcode for the computer),he would smile and proceed to spell it out...
"M-I-C-H-A-E-L-Enter".
He believed until he was 7 or 8 that his name ended with the letter "Enter".
A childhood belief about names
