Fanon talk:Jestyn Leishman/@comment-24258073-20140401053610

The reason why I spelt his name "Jestyn" is because it's less conventional than "Jestin". The former spelling fits his background and heritage. There are quite a few maoris that tend to use an unconventional spelling for their names or their children's names. I suppose they do it because they think it's cool to use unconventional spellings, or at least different.
