Homophone Names by Nagamasa on 02-25-2007 at 06:18 PM

How many do you know in person? (BTW... not ones that you make up)

Shawn/Sean/Shaun

Stefan (as in fans)/ Stefan (as in Shawn)

...and that's all my non-working brain can think of right now.

EDIT: Stephanie/Stephany
          John/Jon

stephanie/stephany

erik/arik/eric

john/jon

quinn/quin/kwin

brittany/brittanie

Taelor / Taylor ... haha long story. (Even tailor, but then, that's not really a persons name...)

There are probably loads if you think about it - although someone once told me that dodgy spelling of peoples names is because people's parent's can't spell :o.

Irčne/Eirini
It nearly sound alike but Irene is French whereas Eirini is Greek.
