Haha now it WOULD be Mary Sue to spell Melissa as Melyssa. I think I actually knew another Melissa in high schol who spelled her name that way. But then again I live in a strange town. You should see the names of my students. So many times i misprounounce names because they are totally spelled wrong. My students have the most Mary SUe spellings. lots of Lesly's, Jinnifer's, Jessyca's, Jailen (but pronnounced Jailene) It drives me crazy. I think it's a Hispanic thing though.

When I was a child (okay.. and maybe still now..) I was really jealous of my sister because her name was spelled all mary sueish (Lyndsi) and I got plain old boring Stephanie. Why couldn't I be Stefani? lol
