When people spell Mikey "Mickey" or when people spell Raph "Ralph"?

Well, I've never seen anyone spell Mikey 'Mickey', but I'm sure if they did, it was a mistake.
Now, when people spell it 'Ralph', that gets on my nerves. I don't understand why people think it's Ralph.

As a Raph fan boy, I'll go Ralph, but both annoy me.

I went with "Mickey" because I misspelled the other one "Ralph" as well.
I now know that "Raphael" and "Ralph" are two different names with two different meanings and two different etymologies...but at the age of 13 I was not aware of that.

Both mistakes are forgivable, I suppose, but it's fun to be intolerant so I thought I'd make a bitchy poll. ;)
I've definitely seen a lot of Mickey, especially among hyperactive fangirls.

I get a lil upset at both, especially on ebay items or things deviantart fanart stuff. I voted Ralph because I just hate it more.

I've seen Ralph a lot more than Mickey so I had to go with that.

Never really seen or heard many people mispell Mikey as Mickey. But a surprisingly large amount of people spell and say "Ralph" when referring to Raph, hell even people that have seen the movies, read the comics and played the games say it. Or maybe they just have lisps...
I dunno every time any one says Ralph I think of this kid...

Not as bad as Don being called Donald.

Ralph... It kinda gets on my nerves.
Leo being called Leonard ;)

Looks like my main man "Ralph" is in the lead, which is normally what "Leonard" does.:lol:
I went with Raph being called "Ralph". Mikey spelled as "Mickey" is a little bit more forgivable in my opinion. ^^;

I went with mickey. In the one thread i spelt it like that. My first post i edited. I also spelt "krang" as "crang". Oops!

Another one i hate, Leo being called "Leon"
I've seen Mickey more that I care to. Im like why cant these people get it right?!
"Ralph" reminds me of this idiot driver that used to work for us, his name is Rafael but everyone called him Ralph or Raffa

I voted "Ralph"...but both are annoying, just "Ralph" is more so than "Mickey"
Another one i hate, Leo being called "Leon"
Yeah, I've seen that too.
I don't really see people get Don wrong, but the other three I've seen quite a bit...More for "Mickey" and "Ralph" though, with "Leon" being every now and then :lol:

But I can see why that's a little irking when calling Leonardo "Leon" though.

Hey hey! I think there are great threads going on here. I just wanted to throw in a pointless one too. :D

Yeah, me, too. I mean, ONE time of either one is mildly amusing (kinda), but it happening repeatedly gets annoying.:evil::x
And don't even get me STARTED on the number of TMNT fanfics that it's happened in!:x:evil:

Agreed! For DL it's a good name...but for Leonardo... :dead:

Unfortunately, that's mainly where you see the mistakes. I've seen great fanfics before that make little mistakes like that or bad grammar...or both. Then again, sometimes you get the ones that are so bad they're funny... :lol: :D

just read a old comment on my youtube video where someone wrote "mickey"
just couldn't stop laughing since the writer wanted to teach me that Leo in my video had wrong mask, but the writer couldn't get the name correct:D

Ralph. There's no "l" between "a" and "p" in Raphael. Mickey may work as a nickname.

I guess "Mickey", because I find the Ralph thing to be pretty funny.

Tell me about it..
This thread is about as pointless as that other one I saw some time ago that was about which ninja turtle should Venus hook up with, or marry, or something like that.
Honestly... Is TMNT dead already?

No! Melodramatic much? It was just a jokey thread. There are plenty of those. I love the deep character analysis threads too, why don't some of you complainers start one?

Because, you'd probably do the same thing: Complain.
