Durelin, you aren't alone... I've always wondered why some people spell Fordim's name with an "h" as well.

I used to have a huge problem spelling Encaitare's name right... I couldn't figure out where the "i" went. It took me forever one time when I was trying to PM her, I finally had to go look it up on the Member's List.

And I always have to think about whether Child's name is spelled "7th" or "Seventh."

I think this is what nicknames do to us... they make us forget how to spell the real name.
