[quote=Anonymous]We did this. Our daughter's name is spelled "Anna" but pronounced the Spanish way "Ana" (we wanted a nod to her Guatemalan heritage). Yep, we need to correct teachers, even beyond the first week of school. But people pick it up pretty quickly, and at 6 she doesn't seem to mind much when it's said wrong. It's really not that big of a deal. Her friends pick it up quickly. If you like the two n's but the "one n pronounciation" then go with it. I've only ever seen an h inserted once and that was with a Scandinavian background. [/quote]
