Re: Kameron/Cameron/Kamron
in reply to a message by LiaMaria
Like the other commenters, I prefer the Cameron spelling. Heck, if I'd been born a boy, that very likely would've been my name! (Either Cameron or Garrett, it was between those.)
I wouldn't say the E "serves no purpose", because Cameron has a very subtle schwa; but I understand accents can vary.
I do think it's sad, though, that someone whose name is Kamron (spelled that way) could have difficulty getting a job in this country because that's his name. It's an unfortunate reality that speaks to deep-seated prejudices in our culture.

I agree 100 percent with your last two sentences.
I also agree with the subtle schwa--yet though no diphthong, do we phonate the space between the "m" & the "r", if such there were? yet since names are personal nouns, they may be pronounced and spelled to choice.
