Spell That Paul With A ‘C’

SR buddy Paul Turner of The Slice writes in his blog: “Was making restaurant reservations last night. The professionally pleasant young woman on the phone asked for my last name. I told her. She then requested my first name. “Paul,” I said. “Is that with a C?” she inquired. Not sure where to go from there, I went ahead and spelled my name for her. Can’t remember having to do that before. Ever. I don’t want to rush to judgment before all the facts are in. But I have a sneaking suspicion Beatlemania has begun to subside. To say nothing of the New Testament. More here.

Question: I always have to spell my last name for a phone stranger taking down a message because the last “I” is silent. How about you? Do you get tired of spelling your name for people?
