When people can't pronounce your name right...

[wart57]

Igor: Dr. Frankenstein... .
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: "Fronkensteen."
Igor: You're putting me on.
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: No, it's pronounced "Fronkensteen."
Igor: Do you also say "Froaderick"?
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: No... .”Frederick."
Igor: Well, why isn't it "Froaderick Fronkensteen"?
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: It isn't; it's "Frederick Fronkensteen."
Igor: I see.
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: You must be Igor.
[He pronounces it ee-gor]
Igor: No, it's pronounced "eye-gor."
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: But they told me it was "ee-gor."
Igor: Well, they were wrong then, weren't they?

I have a somewhat long and very difficult to pronounce last name and I actually get a lot of enjoyment over how noone can pronounce it correctly. It's a regal name(at least to me) and I'm proud of it.

My last name gets owned by basically anyone who doesn't already know me or someone in my family. Heck, some people I've known for a while still pronounce it incorrectly.

Mispronouncing a name is just lazy. I have no problem asking umpteen times and practicing in front of the person until I get it right.

Mispronouncing my name isn't an issue. Misspelling my name, however...

[cardsfansince82]

My last name should be really simple, and I'm not just saying this because it's my name. There's really only one logical way to say it and yet people find a way to screw it up.

My last name is fairly well known, and seen often, yet it is consistently butchered, and nobody can spell it.

I'm going to throw out a blind guess here.
Lafayette?

Nope.

Ron Burgundy: I don't know how to put this but I'm kind of a big deal.
Veronica Corningstone: Really.
Ron Burgundy: People know me.
Veronica Corningstone: Well, I'm very happy for you.
Ron Burgundy: I'm very important. I have many leather-bound books and my apartment smells of rich mahogany.

I wonder how much trouble Brett Favre had before he got famous.
