Well, lots of people refer to me as "Peababy", so I think it's often misread.

I know there are a few that I always correct myself about, but now I can't think of them of course.

I just read the thread name as "board games", not "board names" and thought it was an odd topic. Merilee

I usually read really quick, and whenever I see calgal08's username, I read 'Calgon' in my head. (which shows you how old I am, lol!!) Calgon, Take Me Away! video

There is someone who's username is one letter off of a former classmate of mine who tragically passed away this year. I don't want to post the name because I don't want her to feel bad, but it was pretty jarring the first time I saw her posting. It took my breath away a few times. My classmates last name is only two letters long so it would be easy to find her if I shared, too.

My "mistake" has posted to this thread! psiluvu. When we were kids we and the neighbor kid used to call each other Pinlusliv. Weird story where that came from, but I always see that.

Wholarmor
I always read whore la more
Especially ironic bc on an explain your pea name thread she said it referred to a bible verse.
So wholarmor - if you read this...why did you leave out the e in your pea name (why not have it be wholearmor)?

Not names, but there was a recent thread titled "when do you get rid of your car(s)" and every single time, I read it as caT(s)...even once I realised I was reading it wrong, I still thought cats when I saw it again.

Yes, Shar-lag and D Seven for me too! And ginacivey is Gina-Civey but I don't think it's actually that. Sometimes KelleeM is kelleem instead of (I assume) Kellee M. Another one I did a double take at the other day was River - at first I read it as turdkc!!

Another one I did a double take at the other day was River - at first I read it as turdkc!! It is Kellee M. I wish I had thought to just use Kellee when we moved to this board but in my excitement to get signed up I went with the "M" on the end as I had at 2Peas. At 2Peas there was someone registered as Kellee before I signed up in 2002 but I think she only had one post.

It doesn't happen to me here, but I use a similar user name on a hockey fan site. It is a small site, maybe 100 posters, and only about half a dozen women. Lots of the guys there thought my user name was Brian. I had commented about a game on our anniversary and a lot of guys said, "hope you and your wife have a good time and the team wins for you." and Finally one guy said, "I think she is the wife." Cracked me up.

I see ginacivey as gina vinci and kelleem is always kelleem. Never even thought it would be Kellee M.
