I don't really see anything wrong with how my name's spelled, except for the fact that it is material for people to butcher upon sight.

"Mare-ee-um"

Still never heard a soul pronounce it this way

^^^^

My first name: I'd say it's rare. I've never met anyone else who has it. Gets pronounced "Mare-ee-um" all the time, which I hate (it's actually 'Mee-Ree-um.')
My middle name: Spelt like a somewhat common American middle name and pronounced completely differently. It's my German grandmother's name. I used to mispell it when I was younger.
Last name #1: Literally starts with 'Mr' because it's German and vowels can be next to each other without it being wrong. Never pronounced right.
Last name #2: Usually also pronounced wrong because 'Tre' is pronounced 'Tree,' which is kinda dumb since there's no second e.

Huh, I've always heard it as "mee-ree-um". I get called "ee-vee" all the time, but that makes sense since most people do go by that and not "eh-vee". Still annoying though. I also go with "ay-va" as opposed to "ee-va".

My name's been pronounced Mee-uh, and May-uh
And don't get me started on spelling

Very well. I'd assume it's said kinda like Zacha-rhea upon sight so I guess that's what you mean?

I think it's cool, but it's got to be annoying to have people butcher it so often.

I had a slight speech impediment when I was younger so in kindergarten until like second grade, I said Miriam wrong myself. I've also been called Moriah and Maybell.

Maybell?
Fun Fact: My name was going to be Mabel, then my family laughed at my parents so they changed it

I know two Mariah/Moriahs and I hate them both with a passion

Josie-phyne or Josie-fine is the most common way people manage to butcher my name.

Thanks. It really is though. I used to have my first name butchered too, though eventually, I managed to negotiate my way into getting it changed when I was younger.

I know a Mariah, she's a bit annoying and boring but tolerable.

Oh, thank you. I appreciate the compliment.

I have the German version of your name.

Mmm talking about first names reminds me of a summer school kid who I hate with all my heart.

That just reminded me of a kid I met at a summer camp who I despise with a passion

Honestly, I felt really bad for this one girl I knew. Her name was a really weird spelling of 'Alexandria'. Her mom just really wanted something original.
