I was spellchecking a post today and found out that Kapera, DFW's Weyrwoman, is misspelled - her name should be Capers! (Kind of fitting) What are your character's names 'misspelled' as by the spellchecker?

Some of mine:

Cyrek - Creek
Harki - Hark & Haiku (?!)
F'lin - Fling
Tsaera - Tarra

Some of these are dragon names....

Tabarnith - Abernathy
Erdenth - Ardent
An'dr - Andre
Nytha - Nita
K'reyel - Creel
Thanja - Tania
M'van - Maven

Paula

I never noticed it before, but it's kind of fun... most of my names are misspelled according to the spellchecker.

Guess who they are:

Coronal
Urdus/Judas
Zachariah
Enter
Telecom
Ellipse
Keyed
Untie
Shuddery
Argo
Melanka
Edna
Audit
Alomar
