Seen Sean?

Why are there so many legitimate spellings for the name Sean?

  • Sean

  • Shawn

  • Shaun

I can't think of any other names with that many LEGITIMATE spellings. I mean John has two (Jon). Karl has two (Carl). Are there any others with 3?

When I say legitimate I am not talking about these parents who take a traditional name, and bedazzle it with their own little tricks. You know, like Emilee, or Jaxon, or Myshell.

So why Shawn? It's not even that common of a name. Why does it need 3 spellings?

Nice try ladies.

Terra means earth in Latin so it doesn't count.

Wouldn't Aileen be pronounced Ay-leen as opposed to I-leen?

OK I'll give you Kelly (ie, i), but only because I'm in a good mood.
