I dislike it as well. I have really only run into this issue on the interwebz. I once chatted with someone who
kept calling my partner hy and when I corrected this person they said "well,
hy is your Daddy, right"?
yeah, AND that makes my partner a HY???
I'm too impatient to deal with people like that.

I used to avoid people who did this even after being reminded several times, I am trying to soften on it and continue to remind them....but it sure gets old.
