Would love to know where this person is from assuming he's American. I've never heard anyone under 60 pronounce a Polish name correctly and I live in a city full of them.

See, this is why I gently caress up everyone's names evenly at the start of a semester. I even tell the students before the first roll call, "I am going to butcher some names here, so I apologize in advance for what is about to happen."

Edit: Also, so apparently no one is going to mention how awesome and funny the name "Cnut" is?

I had a teacher who hosed up the name Kelley, he said "Keel-Lee". It all makes sense now.

What I'm getting from this is that teachers should intentionally get all names wrong so the weird kids don't feel so slighted by it.

Having a name that's not pronounced correctly is the worst. My name ends in -ey, but is supposed to be pronounced like -y. I've basically given up correcting anyone.

My wife kept her maiden name because of this.

This one is totally understandable; Americans (and possibly Canadians ?) pronounce Bernard differently than the rest of the English-speaking world.

My father, grandfather, and grandfather's father are all name Bernard and this is how it's pronounced. We're American.

My brother-in-law is a pharmacist, and I asked him about this because I see pill bottles with incoherent instructions all the time. He said it has to do with the system they use auto-printing labels that are translated by a speak-to-text program they use. He even confirms it's a pain in the rear end to go back and correct everything. His take? Lots of lazy pharmacists who don't double check the prescription bottles they're giving people.

Were you not a good enough baby to inherit the name? If you're female you could still make it work, I think.
