Amazing how the mind works... a little unrelated but in the same arena...
For years, whenever I told somebody my last name, Wright, they go, "Oh... is the w-r-i-g-h-t?". In my mind I always thought, "...well, duh... what other way to spell it?"
Then I finally vocalized something I had passed on my way to work every day for years, without realizing what it was... Reydt Auto Sales... Reydt is pronounced exactly like "Wright"!
