QotD: Repeat After Me...
How have people mispronounced your name? How is it supposed to sound?
Submitted by Lorie.
Sometimes people pronounce my first name as "Stefan", but far more often people get my first and last names mixed up and call me Brandon. This doesn't really bother me, it's pretty much par for the course when you have a common first name for a last name. It also happens more at work where people are likely to see my name listed last name and then first name in the e-mail system or wherever. Most people catch themselves and then apologize, but as I said it doesn't really bother me, and if it just happens occasionally I often don't even bother correcting them if they don't realize they've done it.
