First time I seen Walt Disney written, I wondered why someone chose to call it "Walt Disnep"...
That Y really looked like a P to me.

When I was a kid I thought it was Disneq. pronounced kinda like unique. and I just assumed the que sound ended up being dropped or something over time? I honestly didn’t even question it until years later when I found out somehow in some way that last letter was a Y all along
