Say you have a name that can be spelled several ways like Brian/Bryan OR Robby /Robbie OR Sidney/Sydney, OR Catherine/Katherine etc. Would it bug you if people continually spell it wrong?

Hey, At LEAST they are TRYING ... my first and last name are more unusual .. and with my last name being only 4 letters total ... there are so many, many misspellings and mispronunciations that NO ONE (except for family AND my current Boyfriend (who actually listened for me to introduce myself!)) can get it right at all. It DOES Bug me that people tend to pronounce my Polish name with Spanish inflections (tonal sounds) ...

My name can be spelt Sharon, Sharron, Sharyn. It doesn't bother me really because they usually ask me how I spell it.

Not really. It takes more than that to 'bug me'. "Don't pet the sweatty stuff and don't sweat the petty stuff".
