Shakespeare was even less consistent - he spelled his name several different ways. Are you going to say that Shakespeare had trouble with language? It's okay to spell your name any way you want to. I could spell Holger "Xyzabc" if I wanted to. However, I would constantly have to tell people how to pronounce it. If you spelled it Xyzabc one week and Holger the next week, people would look at you funny. Shakespeare spelled his name a variety of ways that varied from time to time. lojbab -- lojbab Bob LeChevalier, Founder, The Logical Language Group (Opinions are my own; I do not speak for the organization.)
