Default Do you know how to spell A. Stoudemire first name correctly?

If you had to guess, would it be

Amare Stoudemire

or

Amaré Stoudemire

or

Amar'e Stoudemire

answer in white font

Amar'e Stoudemire - I was shocked, and he didn't change it until this year...

From what I found out, he didn't change anything, everybody just had it wrong - so he corrected the NBA...

Wasn't there articles about this like a month ago? I'm surprised that many of you who are here nearly every day never found that out until today. Not saying that it is bad, I'm just saying I'm surprised.

I remember when Mark Blount played for Boston. His name is pronounced "blunt", not the way it looks. The first game of his last season in Boston, Mike Gorman explained to everyone over the air how it was pronounced, and my immediate thought was, "what the **** too him so long to correct everyone?"

Appreciate the fyi but I don't care. I'm writing Amare until someone gives me a good reason to do anything different.

I heard Amar'e claimed he will hunt down and kill anybody that doesn't write his name with an apostrophe in his name in the correct place. Good enough reason for you?

Further proof of the decline of the Western Civilization. In ancient Rome, there were only 15-20 male names you could legally give to a child.
