Today, I received a phone call from my father asking how I spelled my name. Not only was he the parent who picked out my name, he was completely serious. FML
I agree, your life sucks 29 039
You deserved it 2 090

crimson28 tells us more.

Like I said, he doesn't have any sort of disease, he was calling to make sure that the form he was sending in had my name on it the exact same why my license has my name, and he said, " ______ is spelled with one L?" Also, he's not an idiot and is the best father anyone could ask for. He just wasn't thinking and I was having a fairly crappy day in the first place. So it made it a bit more noticeable.

He didn't have your name programmed in his phone?

My dad does that too. And I'm named after him.

Hopefully you didn't get his genes....

Yes, shouldn't it have been atleast in his phone? Also, is your name common or kind of hard to spell? I moderated this one. :D

Well even you spell your name m-o-n-i-k-a, so I can see where he'd be confused...

YDI for not being remembered

42- I think she meant her dad named her Monika when she was born, but he spells her name Monica a lot.

YDI for living in Tennessee. ****** hicks!

Maybe he has her programmed under a nickname. My uncle nearly missed the moment of my cousin's graduation because he was waiting for them to announce "Cookie" since that is what everyone has called her since she was born.

well that's alright my father still forgets my birthday, and calls me "Julie" .. my names samantha.

#1 He does, it's just he remembers her as turtle face.

well fathers are usually that way. Maybe your name is spelled 100 different ways

Fathers are usually that way? I have yet to meet a man who doesn't know his child's own name.

He knows her name, he just can't spell it. My dad still asks me how to spell my name sometimes, what my middle name is, what grade i'm in and how old I am.

my dad don't even remember my bday or my age

My dad does that too. And I'm named after him.

Don't they just call you Junior, then?

Oh you think you have problems....I just got 24 kills and died right before my nuke! That's real problems!!! lol. I'm jk that sucks.

No, a new baby cousin. I walked past her in the hospital 3 times because I was looking for a Shavaugh, not a Siobhan.
