-   -   Why do people put a second "R" in Yorick? (http://www.ironworksforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=85566)

My pseudo is Yorick, not Yorrick, yet many posters have misspelled the name.

Why is this so?

Now, I don't care whether people misspell the name or not, or shorten it or whatever. What I'm interested in is WHY people see a second R where there is one. ;)

hmmmmmm.

Yorick what you talking about I never ever spelt it with two R's. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Hey Yorick, I'm not really sure why people mispell your name, but I have a feeling it's one of those pronounciation things. Yor-rick. You think?

Yorrrick, it's the 3rd one that gets me :D

ummm..

i got it, hon!

the peeps who do that are into transformation. yknow? they take the second "s" from my name and turn it into an "r" and add it to yours!

:D

Alas poor Yorrrick, I knew him Horatio - back in the days when he only had one R. A good egg who was fond of a bounce - avoided walls for some reason - used to be a real crack-up - most excellent fellow really. Hold on, those last three words had LL's in them - just like you see in Llama's :D .

Hehe!

By habit I guess ;) Sounds better to me that way LOL! :D

I have hardly no time to see what I just wrote and er well call it the linking "r" if you would! ;)

There are two r's in Barry, so I don't want you to feel left out Yorrick. :D

But honestly, does it bother you that much? Not everyone is going to have read Hamlet. Or even smoked one...

I don't spell Yorrick with two Rs do I?
