[quote=Anonymous]I have a foreign first name and hate hearing it pronounced by those who don't speak the language. It's not even that English speakers do a terrible job with my particular name, but it just doesn't sound "right" and after years it still grates. To be clear, I appreciate the effort people make to pronounce my name, and I strive to never let on that I dislike hearing them say my name. I'm just saying, sometimes I've considered telling people my name is "Jane" rather than "Yevgeniya." (not the actual name)[/quote]
