Name game, volume 1

Some time ago I posted a list of stupidly spellled names.  Since then I have been collecting them and sharing them with a couple of friends.  I don't see these friends much, but the magic of technology allows us to keep a running dialogue.  We shake our heads.

I get that people want their children to have names that are special and unique.  But some of  these take it to heights of stupidity, I mean, seriously?  These are names that are going to be asked the spelling for life.  LIFE.

If I do 10 at a time every week, I have enough to last months.  Or until I forget about it or get bored.  Likely the first one.  So, without any further ado, this week's list:

Deserey, and Dessert.  Both pronounce Desiree

Sydni

Karizma

Jammie.  Pronounced Jay Me

Xoey

Taylier.  Pronounced Tyler

Haleigh

Francheskha

Emelee

Alyjx.  Extra stupid.  I called "Ajax", assuming the "l" was silent

OK, more to follow
