Name woes

I'm emailing vendors, so not a whole heck of excitement in the C&B wedding world.  One thing I am noticing, is apparently my name is rather difficult to spell.

I promise you, readers, that when I run my own event planning business, I will check, double check, and triple check, the spelling of each client's name so I address the email correctly.

There ain't no I in Clare, peeps.  Get that through your noggins.

One was ok - a photographer, based in Allston.  She's of Euro origin, so I guess she's used to the french version?  C'est claire?

But my day-of coordinator at my venue should know better because a) she has our paperwork in front of her, b) she has my email address in front of her, which contains my correctly spelled email, c) she has multiple emails from me, signed by my correctly spelled name.

Come on, Robin.  Get with the program.  I'm spending a large amount of money at your place of employment.  You are coordinating what your industry keeps telling me will be the most "important day of my life".  Spell my darn name correctly.

Vent over.  Le sigh.
