Oh ya and thumbs up to the guy who wrote the comment April 23, 08 i when refering to people with the name Shawn but spelled as Sean i pronounce it "See-in" also!!! Sadly though everyone always spells my name as Sean and very rarely will some one spell it right without me telling them how to spell it :(" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Apr 23, 2008: "My name is Shawn. I'm proud to be Irish, yet like my Anglicized name. When people wonder how to spell it, I tell them the simple rule: spelled like it sounds. I always derogitorily refer to "Sean" as "See-in"." (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Apr 17, 2007: "I'm a Shawn, and the only problem is that it can be a uni-sex name, and always misspelled. I've given up trying to correct people who write it as Sean or Shaun. Also, my father's name was John, so it fits, "son of John."" (Report as inappropriate)
