I spelled it correctly. You capitalized both letters which in English indicates it's an abbreviation of a first and middle name. If it's not intended to be understood as initials, then the second letter should be lowercased, as in "Dj" like foreign names such as "Ng". > "I'm insulted, and assume you're doing it on purpose > just to annoy me[*]." > > [*] I'm not insulted, I assume you're innocently mistaken, > just using it as an example of how people can mis-read > others' posts. Well, I should be insulted that you'd correct me for what constitutes a spelling mistake on your part. Although, it's your name so you can claim it's spelled any way you want. You just don't have the right to correct others when you chose to fail to follow English spelling rules.
