And technically speaking, she is the one that spells it wrong.

Technically, Carrie is the incorrect spelling. Sound it out. The double r means it’d sound like car-ee if pronounced the way it’s spelled.

Like you that argument is retarded. Tons of names and words are phonetically incorrect.

Lots of words keep the two consonants in the same syllable. For example asshat. 

Sure, so Carrie is still pronounced carr-eee. Double consonant means short “a”. Carie is pronounced with a long “a” like care-eee. The other correct spelling would be Carey.

Asshat is not pronounced with a short "a" you asshat.

Aaaaaasshat vs acehat. Does it sound like the letter “a” when you sound it out? No? Short “a”. 

Funny enough, both ass and hat are short “a” sounds. 

Hat == short “a”

Hate == long “a”

Damn it, I typed short instead of long. This round goes to you. Even a blind squirrel finds a nut every now and then, even if it is just his own.
