HOWTO

How to Spell My Name, According to Starbucks Baristas Across Southeast Asia

I love coffee.

I have a weird name.

And I live in Singapore and travel regularly in Southeast Asia.

That’s a recipe for some serious Starbucks barista mixups!

Herewith, a collection of misspellings of my name from Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta and more locations over the last year.

This one’s from Jakarta.

Singapore, I think.

This one’s also from KL.

Another one from Singapore.

And another from Singapore, I think. This one’s pretty close, and completely logical.

Can’t remember where this one’s from. But it’s certainly phonetically accurate.

Life would be so boring if my name were James or John.
