I have the third maybe fourth whitest name there is and I've had starbucks workers fukk it up. It isn't a black or white thing. It's a retarded starbucks thing

 

[observe]

It sucks when they mispell my name to "Cream" and they holla it ..it's so fukking gay..why would a persons name be "cream"? Dumb asses

They aren't exposed to them much. When you think of White American names, it's mostly names with links to Britian. Or foreign names which have been anglicized to sound more British.

If White Americans had Slovakian names, Russian names, French, Norweigan names ect. You wouldn't be able to spell them either. Cause you ain't exposed to em'

 

[Luchini]

you should just make up an easy starbucks name like "Dan" that no one can get wrong

I actually had a girl from England in my class. Her name was Ettilie. Last name was super British too. Winnifred, i think it was. I admit when i first heard her name i thought she said "Italy," or "Etilli."

black people don't know how to spell which is why their names are usually spelled retarded

 

[street heat]

No most names given by blacks to their children have no meaning...most are made up nonsense.

There is nothing intellectual or ethnic about Shaquana

Considering the amount of English majors that work at Starbucks, you'd figure the spelling would be better than it is.

May be, buy if you are exposed to those names daily (school, neighborhood,) spelling them would be less difficult.

I'm at Starbucks and so I went up to the counter and this young girl asks me what I want. I told her a tall hot chocolate I see her start to hesitate asking me what name she should put as the order, as if she knows it's about to be some nikka shyt.

Finally she gets it out and asks me how to spell my name


I know how to spell Brittany and Stephanie, why they can't know my shyt

It has nothing to do with being white...there are like 5 different ways to spell "Britney" .. 4 different ways to spell "Stephanie" ...etc ..... and the fact that you are using people writing your name on a coffee cup at Starbucks is a weak example ...... folks got all kinds of crazy ass spellings of names...
