Re: Proper Spelling of team or people's names

I thought I had it bad. You'd think that Husmann would not be hard to spell. Yeah, right.
I've heard or seen the following:
Hussman (the most common)
Hussmann
Houseman
Jusmen (the closest spanish spelling)
Gusman (another misspelling)
Huseman (on my school ID that was a semester late)

Actual pronunciation: hard H, long U (should sound like HOO-smann). the name itself is German.

And with my first name--few get it right the first time. All the usual K/C mixups at the end--and I've even been called by the feminine version once.
