You’d be surprised! I have a friend named Jorden; it’s not a very common first name here. Recruiters and coworkers constantly misspell his name. Jordan is used frequently, and he’s even seen “Jordon”. They ever call him “Carter,” which is part of his last name. It’s just life, he doesn’t mind (as I don’t mind when my last name is misspelled) Why do you think people are deliberately misspelling or mispronouncing your name? Isn’t it much more likely that they’re making mistakes because they subconsciously assume letters go in a certain order in English? Have you tried bringing it up when you see these typos? They’ll most likely apologize and be embarrassed, but won’t argue with you. You’re assuming they know the correct version of your name, but most people don’t actually read letter by letter if they’re sending out hundreds of emails a day. People read words, not letters. “Benham” and “Bentham” are English names, and the reader is subconsciously looking for something they’re familiar with
