Interesting, thanks.
I’ve always liked to learn to pronounce people’s names the way they would like them pronounced.
When I was growing up, my father was a migrant English teacher. We had lots of visitors who spoke other languages, so I developed the habit of asking, trying, asking again, trying again until I got the pronunciation right.
Coincidentally, I’ve just seen this …
“We HAVE to get names right.” Andrew Moore on why correct pronunciation matters
I should have mentioned … Andrew Moore is a Sydney-based sports commentator for the ABC.
