Jarukoth IRRATIONAL EXUBERENCE!!1! Level: 79 Posts: 1152/3194 EXP: 4402011 For next: 177456 Since: 03-17-04 From: New Jersey, U.S.A. Shoes: Yes. Since last post: 8 days Last activity: 1 day |

One thing that I can't stand, is people getting my name wrong. I'm sure it irks other people too. When I first met one particular board member way back when (who shall remain nameless), I confused his name for a certain pastry, and many other made the same mistake since then. My question is this. Have you had anyone else mess with your name so much that it turns a small irk into a major annoyance? Oh, and I case you were wonder what brought this thread about, it's the people who keep calling me Jakuroth... IT'S JARUKOTH. JA. RU. KOTH. NOT THAT TOUGH TO SPELL. JUST DO IT RIGHT BEFORE I SPAZ OUT! |

Wow. I didn't notice your name is Jarukoth. Jarukoth sounds weird anyway, so i'll keep calling you jakuroth. |

I called Rydain "Rydian" for the longest time. I thought it was like a pill or something, I don't know. She was even on my AIM list. There's even someone named Rydian who signs on. The person never IMed me back so I thought Rydain was being a bitch.. etc etc Jarukoth, I've barely noticed you ever. No problems here. The problem I've gotten with my name is people going YER NOT A DUDE all the fucking time. Hey assholes, I'm not a Yoshi either. Get over it. edit: adding "etc etc" made no sense.

Hmm, I don't think I've spelled your name wrong Jarukoth. Just like nobody's spelled my name wrong. Not. How hard is it to spell "Toxic" ? I have people calling me toxci, toixc, txo all the time. I feel your pain Jarukoth. |

Rydain!? I never knew Mind if I still call you Rydian? Sounds much better And of course, everyone knows it's Kharpen. And I never had any problems with Jarukoth. And yeah, people call me weird stuff all the time. Mosly Jespar though. Like "fshkal" "mixzi" "lgjijgi". Or maybe that's just how he likes to start converstaions with everyone. |

Nope, I can't really say I don't have any name issues. I can't recall ever having bitched at anyone for making any mistakes in the spelling/capitalization of my nick. | |||

Originally posted by The SomerZJackiechan calls you Summers. I call you Somerseth, sometimes SomerZed as logic dictates it should be. On that subject, is my logic flawed in this matter? |

Well, no, not really, your logic ain't flawed. The name SomerZ is taken from my real-life surname, which is Sommerseth. The h in Sommerseth is silent, so it's really pronounced like the English county Somerset. A Norwegian Z is pronounced set, thus SomerZ is a simplified spelling of Sommerseth. So calling me SomerZed is actually quite near to being correct. That being said, a lot of my real-life friends actually call me "Somesh". That is because they pronounce the nick SomerZ (which I use in real-life, as well) as if the Z was an S (which it often is pronounced as in Norwegian). You'd think it would become SomerS, then, of course, but in my Norwegian dialect, if R and S are put together, they are pronounced as a retroflex SH-sound.

Yes. Urg.....I mean, how hard is to say "anya" wrong? And it's the same person over and over again. Bah.... | |||

I've seen people writing LizardKing with a small k, but I've never gone all out and complained about it. The most common mistake with my name is to write it in two words, like Lizard King.. and that's what annoys me the most, but I've never complained about that either. Next time I see someone doing a mistake with my name though, I will. |

Originally posted by LizardKing I have pretty much the same issues as LizardKing here. With me, people enjoy capitalizing the second E (EmptyEye), or just making it two words (Empty Eye). I don't know why...probably because I didn't bother to complain about it. |

Originally posted by Kawa-oneechan If you called me "Jaru", no. At least you would still have it right. On the other hand, if you call me "Jaku", then I kill a kitten. |

Noooo don't kill kittens! They're too cute to die! *Kawa-oneechan flips out and collects all nearby kittens, shoves 'em all in a big bag and tosses 'em into the Safe Room (save room?) |

...and in that safe room is Anya. Who takes the kittens out of the bag and begins to play with them, with string and cat nip. Five minutes later... No, Anya!! That catnip isn't for you!!! ~~~~ |

"Jarukoth" -> "Jakuroth" is just one of many name confusions ... Kharpern was often called Kharpen, and you think people never get lost with the "Acmlm" spelling? aclmm, acmim, acclm, aclml, acmlmclmlmclmalm ... doesn't bother me that much, and I'm perfectly fine with the easier "Milly" name some of them gave me, but it gets weird sometimes |
