People frequently screw up names in the same ways.
Mac often becomes “MAC”. I don’t know why. Names of other computer-related products aren’t usually accidentally capitalized. Nobody says ITUNES or EXCEL.
The iPod Touch1 gets hit hard, too, by people calling it the “iTouch”.
I’ve been complaining about the “iTouch” thing forever. Good to know I’m not alone.

re: iTouch VS iOthers: the hard T in iTouch lends itself well to the combined word’s euphony, whereas the softer M, N, and V sound gross.

How come sometimes when people reply to a comment I’ve made they misspell my name WHEN IT IS CORRECTLY SPELLED RIGHT ABOVE WHERE THEY ARE REPLYING? That always pisses me off.

People always correct me by turning my last name Roberton into Robertson with an “s”. I don’t know how many times I’ve had someone look me up in a system by one and could find me because somewhere in the chain it was changed to the other

You think you have it hard with “Marco”? Try Faruk. “Hi Frank.” No, it’s Faruk. “Oh, I’m sorry.” {3 days later} “Hi Frank, …” *sigh*
And I’m not even going to START on the horrendous mispronunciations of Ateş.
