[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We chose names that work in multiple languages and just accept that it will be pronounced differently in different settings--kid has a European name and an American name, similar ot how some kids have a Chinese name and an American name.[/quote] This is similar to my situation. I was not born in the US but my parents knew it was likely we would move here soon after, so they chose a name that exists in our language and in English. To my family and friends who speak our native language, I've been known one way and all through K-12 and with English-speaking people my name is pronounced the American way. It has not been a big deal to me at all. [/quote]
