"Having it mispronounced so often you're not even totally sure if you're saying it right."

1. Growing up with an unusual name meant that you had some very unnecessary conversations.

2. And you spend endless hours clarifying with no real result

3. You wished you could cash in (literally) on all the mispronunciation

4. You began to question your identity due to the stupidity of others

5.Though sometimes there were perks for originality

6. Usually people just made bad jokes

7. So eventually you just let it go

8. And learned to anticipate the impending disaster

9. You knew the crushing disappointment of all souvenier shops

10. And didn't even bother answering pointless questions after a few years in school.

11. And of course, if someone did happen to get it right, you were pleasantly surprised (until the next time it was butchered, of course.)
