Title: My name is...
Post by: Exist on October 13, 2007, 12:08:00 PM
...unpronounceable


Is your name complicated so nobody can say it right?

And this is not for the"Bob"s and " Bill"s out there.

Let me put it this way:

My name is so hard to pronounce that throughout the better part of my life people have had to address me with the English version of it.

My name isn't complicated, its rather short. Even so people manage to misspell it and mispronounce it.

I do like my name, though; quite the uncommon one.

My given name is fairly unusual but it's something that people would recognize most of the time and know how to pronounce.
My surname is relatively hard to pronounce correctly, even my family isn't sure how it's supposed to be pronounced. Two consecutive "r"s and some "i"s and "e"s that could be one of several vowel pronounciations. I don't like it, I want a different name...
