I lived in fear of a Darth Vader-esque school dinner lady who stood me perpetually at the naughty table for refusing to eat mushy peas. An ordeal made worse after I was caught spooning the accursed veg into her wellies. Who, we ask, has wrecked your life?
Thanks to Philly G for the suggestion

In other cases, the made up names (code for deliberate misspellings "to make them more individual", or for just plain illiteracy) like T'aaneeyah (for Tanya), N'Ormann (Norman), Mikelti (Michael T.), or Track, Bristol, Trig etc. that lots of Septics of all hyphenates (Sarah Palin, I'm talking to you) inflict on their offspring make it a forgiveable mistake.
I'm surprised such kids manage to spell their own name the same way twice running, never mind their teachers.

why choose Dhaaniyaal, instead of Daniel? Unless this is a name in another culture of which I'm not aware of?
