[quote=Anonymous]Polish name, Polish spelling, Polish spelling. Ditto for relatives on all sides with few rare exceptions. In my major urban Midwestern city (not in Illinois), people from many places, of all different colors and ethnicities pronounce my name correctly. In DC and the DC Metro area I can count on one hand how many people pronounced it correctly in the nearly 25 years I've lived here. So weird. Just reinforces the idea that although DC is an international city, it is a bit podunk.[/quote]
