That's My Name, Don't Wear It Out

My name is spelled differently than most Jeremys alive. I've never actually met another Jeramy, even though I've heard that they actually do exist. Needless to say that since kindergarten, I have been used to people spelling my name wrong. A lot of times people know I spell it differently, but they aren't sure exactly how. For Instance I have a relative who until a couple years ago spelled it Geremy. I've just kind of gotten used to it.

At work, we've decided to embrace my unique spelling. I normally sign e-mails to my boss JerAmy. This week I got a new name plate for the office that I share with my boss.


I still get teased about it though. As part of my Christmas gift, my boss got me a sticker of the letter E because my name was missing one.

 
 
This week I had a misspelling first. I got a certificate for participating in the Dean's Tutorial Society. Needless to say I have never had my named spelled like this before.
 
 


It doesn't really bother me anymore, I just thought this was too funny no to share. If I would get offended by this sort of thing, I would have lead a very bitter life up until this point.

  1. I hope the school corrected the certificate. It is for LARC - a class that's all about correcting writing errors. Hahaha!
