22 Times Starbucks Failed Terribly At Spelling Names

It’s no secret that Starbucks is one of the most popular coffee shops in the country. With so many people coming through the doors, the baristas have to learn tons of names. Still, there are plenty of times when they get it wrong. Check out these name fails that are so bad, it hurts.

Marbra

Marbra? What made them think this was right?

Undress

Because Undress is such a common name these days.

Juanica

Juanica is close enough.

Tsach

Does he really have to go around saying "it's Zach, with a 'Z'" now?

Mad-Ah-Lynn

You're supposed to sound it out in your head, not on the cup.

Rory

Maybe Laurie just grabbed the wrong cup? Nah, we didn't think so either.

Air Inn

Air Inn is one gigantic air ball for Starbucks.

Any

So that's how you spell Annie, we've been wrong for so long.

Gim

We could tolerate them spelling it Gym maybe, but not Gim. 

Tilor

Put a diacritical mark over the "i" and it works. 

Semen

Poor Simon. Hopefully his day got better from there.

Auntie

The barista must have had pretzels on their mind.

Just Poor Separation Here

Spacing makes all the difference. Now Clint will forever be known as c**t.

Gimli

Emily probably isn't the dwarf warrior from "The Lord of the Rings." Nice try Starbucks.

E.N.

Nobody introduces themselves as initials, so why did this even cross their minds.

Anus

Ok. This one actually made us laugh. 

Missle

Looks like Michelle just earned herself a sweet nickname.

Vagina

"My name is Vagina." Yeah, that's not what happened at all.

Dealing

Starbucks is "dealing" Dylan their amazing coffee.

Cats

You know you are probably the crazy cat lady once people start calling you Cats.

Germine

So close, yet so far.

Loen

Maybe Logan has trouble pronouncing his "g's?"
