I have just booked tickets for a group of 6. I asked for the spelling for one of the group,and just as well I did. I was about to enter Charlie (that doesn't sound right somehow) but made a phone call to find the name was spelt Charley.
Simple and easy mistake,but could have caused a big problem with the airline/immigration.
