Craig in the USA is "Creg", and in other countries it's "Crayg".

Language is constantly evolving.

That one is extremely weird (and distracting if you happen to be talking about a Craig).

I assume they just don’t notice the difference, like with marry/merry/Mary.

Where in the USA are you hearing “Creg?” I’ve never heard it pronounced that way.

I'm in New England and have only ever heard it pronounced Creg.

Wikipedia agrees that this is common: "In North America it is often pronounced with a short vowel sound /krɛɡ/, as in "egg"" [1]
