I don't know that I care so much about unique spellings, but I do like unique names. When I was in grade 12 I went to a new school and there was one girl there named Naomi, but up until then I had been the only one in both my elementary schools and my high school. I liked being the only one with my name

My friend Melissa, however, was ALWAYS known as Melissa W because there was always at LEAST 2 in each class. I think that would drive me nuts
