I don't get this. So many names in so many languages are the 'same' name while being spelled and pronounced slightly different. To me your HR did it right. How should they ever catch every similar name and flatten them together? Did the piotr(ek)s have a problem with it? Cause your story makes it seems like it was other people just being annoyed at having to remember which person had with mail.
Personally I would be angry if HR just assumed that they could rename me to a close variant of my name.
- koliber 2y agoThey should not try to catch them and "flatten" them. That would be unreasonable. They should have listened when a Polish person told them the names are the same and should be treated as such. It's perfectly OK to "flatten" Piotrek to Piotr in Polish. It's not like that in other languages, and I get it. But here's its fine.

- ahazred8ta 2y agoThere are people in india whose names are spelled differently in different dialects. They may have birth certificate, vaccination records, medical records, school registration, and adult ID card all spelled differently.
