As a fellow Sara-without-an-H I think it makes the Starbucks taste bitter and gross when they spell my name wrong. But maybe I'm just bitter and gross about it.
We are slowly taking over the world... I'm a Sara without an h as I was born in London and my dad said that all Londoners drop their h's so I may as well not start with one. The first twenty five years or so were spent saying, "no, not Sarr-ra,, Sair-ra". Now we have BBC Radio one dj Sara Cox, Sara Lee cakes and Sara Sidle in CSI. Yay! I am not alone.

As a Sara myself, I too appreciate it dear Starbucks employee.

now you know what it take to be getting a job @ starbucks ...
Holy hell. "H" in Japanese means "sex". After a decade living in Japan, "H" is just stuck in my head like that. "No H" is hilarious.
This is hysterical to me because I introduce myself as Sara with an "H" I've always remarked how we have cults -this proves it.
Best wishes for a healthy baby!
I've had very similar experiences:

Word. I can so relate to this. My name is Sara, and my BFF is named Sarah. Note the "H". She claims to be "One letter better."
Ha!
