[quote=Anonymous]Read the room. Pay attention to social cues. I get compliments all the time from my customers/patients/clients on my outstanding pronunciation/repetition of normally tricky or unusual names. I am truly interested in names and spelling and genuinely love learning about cultures and people. I’ve never offended anyone and would be devastated if this were the case. I’m most often thanked or hugged or made a friend… Again, I read the room and can easily figure out if this is an appropriate time and situation to ask or even comment on a name. I love names!
