But She DID - Tumblr Posts

I have been called a lot of things that aren’t my name (Chelsea, Kelly, Cassandra, and Kenzie, most commonly), especially since I started dealing with people almost constantly at work. And I just got another one to add to that list: Elsie.
(I really don’t know where people get some of these. “Kelsey” really isn’t that hard. Chelsea is the most common mistake; it started the day I was born and has continued to this day. And for some reason, even if people see my name written down, they still get it wrong.)

a sub in elementary school called me chloe once
it was during roll call
i don't know how she got 'chloe' out of 'kelsey'
but she DID
i can understand mishearing my name during a phone call
but the vast majority of the time its in person or they see my name written
