Just heard a story, this guy went into Starbucks, his name is Stephen, he orders a coffee and since they write your name on the cup, the ask: "what's your name?" to which he responds: "Stephen with a PH"... Now you think you know whats coming next? They wrote "Stephen with a PH" on the cup? Nope. They wrote "Phteven". Say that out loud! It's quite hilarious.

I have a normal name. Jacob. It's been the most popular name for boys nearly every year in my 25 years of existence.

I assume people know how to spell my name. My last name I spell out (it's common but there are at least 4 or 5 different ways to spell it). So when I go to starbucks, I just say 'Jacob' and go about my business.

Last time I went to starbucks they spelled my name 'Jakub'. I don't even....

Haha, the buzzfeed in another response is hilarious. Sometimes I'm not sure if they are being passive aggressive or for real don't have a clue.

They'd find a way.

I once told the cashier at Panera my name was 'Voltron'. I barely made it with a straight face. It was hilarious when they called my order, they come on the loudspeaker 'food ready for *quiet muffled laugh* Voltron?'

Took my daughter to Starbucks in a Barnes & Nobel while we browsed, and they spelled her name "Emeley" What the hell? Emily's been around since the dark ages, how could they mess that up?

Hahahaha.

I may try this sometime too, I imagine you'd have to pay cash and not use your panera card?

My name is Lobo.

I used a credit card. Sometimes they'll just take the name off it, but most of the time they ask anyways. I don't think they give a crap if you give them a name to call that is actually your name.
