HelpRe: Chloe'
in reply to a message by Chloe McSwain
Naw, I'm a student. When roll is called and they say "klo-AY", and you reply, "Actually, it's KLO-ee", do they not note it?
I'm not sure exactly what the rules are with legal names, but you can probably write Chloe instead of Chloe' on your registration forms, and avoid the whole issue. You could also stop signing your name Chloe', and probably legally change it to remove to accent. It's a bit of a hassle, but a lot less of a hassle than having your name misspelled, which sounds like it really bothers you.

When you say note it, (please keep your mouth shut RoxStar) you mean they write it down right? Some do, some don't. Thanks. I'll talk to my mom about changing the way I write my name.Thanks. You're not like soem of the other people on this board that are being slightly rude and degrading. Thank-you.

No one on here is being degrading.
Everyone has been giving you very informed opinions and you are the one being rude:
"keep your mouth shut RoxStar."
If you want people to give you their honest opinions, you have to learn to deal with it when they disagree with you.

She said I was being silly for asking a question I honestly didn't know the answer to!( or is that supposed to be too??). Maybe YOU don't think their comments (other than Dot, jj21jj and others, yourself included on most of your comments) are degrading, but to the person on the receiving end they are.
And RoxStar, I'm sorry. But your commetn hurt me. But still, I had no right no harp and knock you down. I opologize, and hope you will forgive me.

It's no big deal.
Everyone on this board has very strong opinions and nothing is meant to target anyone personally. Most people here are incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about names so this is a great place to be--just learn to not take things anyone says as direct attacks.

I wanted to know if you think it's stupid for people to ASSUME my name is pronounced KLO-AY with out asking me first. Not introducing. I would have done that in the lounge thing. Sorry if I ticked you off. I'm not saying I did, but IF I did. Sorry.
