Or their phone keyboard offered an autocorrection… Google have been doing that for years now.

autocorrect capitalizes names, the name in the post isn’t capitalized.

So what you’re saying is google knows how to spell Mia Khalifa’s name. Does this mean they want my attention?

I love when smug dickheads make 2nd grade grammar errors.

I’m a smug dickhead, but usually when I make that mistake, it’s because swype doesn’t know which “your” I meant, and I fail to catch the mis-swype. Same with “too/to”. And, weirdly, “me/Mr”. It’s actually a pretty common occurrence, and it’s a huge pain point.

Or the rapper Wiz Khalifa for that matter. The song played at the end of fast 7 when they sent Paul Walker away (See you again) has billions of views on YouTube. In fact it’s up to 7 billion now.

I had read previously (and just confirmed on Wikipedia) that Mia Khalifa (real name Sarah Joe Chamoun) got her stage name from her dog, Mia, and Wiz Khalifa.
So, familiarity with Wiz Khalifa is directly relevant to knowing how Mia Khalifa’s name is spelled.

Tbf, you you donlt have to be a rainman of early 2010s porn to recognise poor transliteration arabic to english, but it helps.

Ok but… who is Mia khalifa?
(I looked it up, I think it’s former controversial porn actress, current internet personality)

They could’ve searched “Mia Kalifa” and found out the correct spelling. So it’s not necessarily begging for attention.
kbobabob@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 day ago
Then why would they ask who it is?

Gil already thought about this is and is just commenting for attention

Goddammit, they’re begging for attention!

Or autocorrect or they read it and wrote it how it sounded to them without looking closely at spelling or many other possible reasons.

Uff thats merciless

To be fair, if I swipe kalifa on my keyboard it autocorrects to Khalifa every time. There is no kalifa option other than the one I’ve just forced. If this person want paying attention to the “h” it could’ve been accidental.
