I never thought "Matthew" could be spelt as "Mathew" before I saw a student at my school publish his name this way in an article he wrote for the school newspaper. I actually prefer this to "Matthew".

This spelling looks incomplete. When I saw it for the 1st time, I thought it's pronounced MAYTH-you.
I hate this spelling and I don't understand why ANYONE who isn't a complete imbecile would butcher the name Matthew like this, I mean, you wouldn't name your son Jefrey rather than Jeffrey, or Rusell rather than Russell, Would you?
