    What irks me the most is the effort these idiot parents will go to give their baby as basic a name as “Allison” or “Ashley”

    • Ashlie
    • Ashlee
    • Ashly
    • Ashleigh
    • Ashlea
    • Ashli
    • Ashely
    • Ashlei
    • Ashleah
    • Asheleigh
    • Ashelie
    • Ahshlee
    • the list goes on and on and on

    No amount of vowels is going to make your kid’s name stand out when at the end of the day it’s the same pronunciation as the most common, basic form of it.

    Mötley might be weird but it’s at least unique.

      the canonical spelling is ashley btw.

      You spell it in any other fucking way and you should be inflicted with the curse of dyslexia for the rest of your livable life.

      that’s + auto suggest is a good way to avoid getting someone else’s email at work. when I started at my new company of 300ish people there were 12 with my first 3letter name
