On my last 3 visits to a certain overpriced overrated coffeehouse, the same barista has interpreted my name in vastly different ways.

My name is Síona.
Previous attempts by Noah the barista have been:
Beanie
Sheep
Shane
Today, however, is special. Today Noah asked me to spell it after conceding "I keep guessing nonsense." And I will never be named Beanie again.

I go there, and they ask my name. Ask me to repeat it.
Then when my coffee is ready, they just scream, "Large Hot Mocha"
The won't say, "Gun" in there.

How in the world did they get those names from Siona?
That’s my question.
Lol

@SW-User In fairness it does start with an sh sound so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt with Sheep and Shane (despite my lack of wool and my being a female) but Beanie is a real mystery
