[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have one of those last names that could legitimately be pronounced 2 or 3 different ways. [/quote] +1. I don’t correct. I honestly don’t care which pronunciation someone uses for my last name. I do correct for my first name. I get called Melissa a lot. My name is not Melissa. I guess I just look like a Melissa.[/quote] Any chance your name is Michelle? I swear I'm called Melissa in 25% of one-off business interactions.[/quote] Ha, it is Michelle. [/quote] As a non-Michelle, I'd say it's because they are both super common names from the 1970s and both start with Ms. So I stereotype them together.[/quote]
