In a word: pointless. Most of the time that a name is being used, it's said out loud, not spelled. The people you meet and introduce yourself to don't care how it's spelled. Spelling is only important for paperwork, and using a kre8yv spelling only complicates that process for both workers completing paperwork and the child. Also, as someone who once had a fairly uncommon name (with a fairly uncommon spelling), it gets VERY tiring of correcting people who don't pronounce it right the first time.
