What's in a Name?

I usually drink the coffee they provide at work, but today I decided that I will treat myself to some Starbucks (it's good to get these Starbucks trips in while I can - the students will be back on campus any day now and the lines will be unbearable). I always walk in there ready for a good laugh - somehow they can never figure out my name. It's not that difficult - ELISE.  They usually confuse it with the same names, Elisa, Alyssa, Elsie, etc. I'll lighten the mood on this Friday with a few that left me completely puzzled and laughing...

ALICE- this is one I often get people think that the 'E' in Elise is pronounced as an A

So then I try to emphasize that it's an E not and A - and what do I get? ELEASE.

DANICE - this was a new one.

And my all time personal favorite, S-CINDY. This is just scary. Not only did they
originally spell Cindy incorrectly (Sindy), but this in no way resembles my name.
