But, I used to hate my name for this sole reason: no one, and I mean no one, every spelled it right! Augh! They woudl call and even write Lindsay and I would be so furious.
It gets worse. When I was little, my elementary school principal referred to me as Leslie! 
Hey, it's interesting that my favorite band has a member with my name. I found that unusually freaky.
Then again, I had met several other Lindseys, and let's say it's hard to be in the same room with them when someone calls out "Lindsey!"

Funny fact: if my name wasn't Lindsey, I would've been named Lucinda or Whitney (still referring to musicians, weird...)

I've taught Lindseys and Lindsays, the most famous being the daughter of the often imitated mother who pronounces the name Leeyindzaaaaay. She likes to add syllables where they're not needed.
