My name can be spelt two different ways, they sound exactly the same, I answer to either

I don't know what your original thought was.
It's how you spell Hambuger, nothing more complicated than that.

Ok, so I took your bait and took another look...
What is the meaning of buger?
a. a despicable or contemptible person, esp. a man. b. an annoying or troublesome thing, situation, etc.
I will let you decide..

It's fine, theres no need to get upset...we all understand.
Most if not all of us here use a Nik that relates to our game or something related to it. Mine for example doesn't need explanaition.
However you started this thread with the question, so either you feel hard done-by by the birth certificate registration of your displayed name by your parents, or there is some truth in whats been posted above.
Either way, it's fine and we all understand

It's the pete bit that's got me confused.
And none of it is capitalised to give a clue.

You're reading it wrong.
His name isn't Pete, I think it's Hambu Gerpete, pronounced ham-boo grr-p-tay

When first married, if my wife accidently signed her maiden name she only had to add two small pen strokes to change it to her married name.

I'm a Scot not Irish - even though my surname starts Mc.
It was just how some registrars - especially back in the day (of my grandfather's birth) - recorded a Mac surname. Indeed - and as my father advised me of at a very young age - the 'c' in my 'Mc' is actually raised with two dots under the 'c' signifying the a has been dropped. I> used to write it that way - but no longer. That said - you wanna see my first name and surname written in Gaelic - as my dad would have written it when younger.

Until you explain what a 'hambuger' is I shall assume you're lying to try and save face having spelt hamburger wrong.
Totally, and this awkward thread just looks desperate.rulie

Same for me. When I was young, I was taught to raise the "c" and put a line under it - probably the same purpose as the two dots? This practice disappeared, now I write it with the "c" on the same level as everything else.

Maybe this has died out due to keyboards and computers not having a character for it?

3. People who are here on a wind up. The guy who can't spell hamburger being the most successful so far.
It's for those who can't understand what it says.

I still write my name with the c raised - though I haven’t put dots under it for years / in fact I think with us it’s one dot as on my grandfathers headstone.
