This is a question Kids

Either you love 'em or you hate 'em. Or in the case of Fred West - both. Tell us your ankle-biter stories.

I feel your pain, Bob
Had my dad had his say in the matter, I would have been called Jody whether i had been a boy or a girl. Instead, small but powerful Mrs Rakky gave me a name which, while it doesn't sound that unusual (as in it is very similar to many common names in spelling and pronunciation) it is just different enough to confuse the hell out of people, be consistently pronounced incorrectly and subject to some of the most garbled spelling I;ve ever encountered. On one memorable occasion my mother left me a note where she'd crossed my name out twice after having spelled it incorrectly herself. She saddled me with the sodding moniker, she should at least be able to spell it. :)

I now don't bother giving my proper name until I know that someone is likely to make the effort to say it right...
