What’s The Funniest Way Someone Got Your Name Wrong?
A short-form post is too short for this one!
I got a letter yesterday addressed to Miss Minns. I sighed. Minnis isn’t a common surname in my part of England. But it isn’t difficult to spell!
Here are a few mistakes I’ve had in the past:
- Mannis
- Minus
- Minute
- Mintz
- Menzies (the Scottish version of Minnis)
- Munnif
Munnif? Munnif? What the heck?!
Munnif has become a long running joke now in our family. Whenever we talk about the mail or writing a letter one of my parents will always pipe up with the question-
“Was it addressed to Mrs Munnif?!”
My first name is Sarah and I’ve had a letter for Darah before (but the letters are close to each other on a keyboard so that’s a typo).
What’s the funniest way someone has mangled your name?
