I've encountered a lot of the reverse of this. Danielle pronounced "Dah Nell". Brittany pronounced "Brih Tanny". Jonathan pronounced "Joe Nathan".

The guiness book of records had an entry for the worst spelling in the old days before the book was dumbed down. Trying to spell 'usage' the incorrect attempt was youzitch achieving only one correct letter.

Not a baby name but I worked with a devops engineer who had dyslexia so all of our IaC variable names had misspellings in them. We just lived with it because it would have been expensive to teardown the resources and reprovision them with the correct spellings.

Brayden, Hayden, jayden, tayden, kayden, rayden, shayden, cayden, pretty much the whole alphabet ending in den. And yes I met every single one of these

The solution is to put all of the uniqueness in the middle name. Then you still get to feel “special” while not forcing your kid to go by “tragedeigh” or whatever.

When I chose my name - I made my first as milquetoast and appropriate to my age as possible. My middle I went balls out - I guarantee I have a cooler middle name than you do.

kayleigh and stuff like that is pretty common where I'm from.

Tragedeigh

I am happy that here in Finland you can't name your child whatever you want.
