    People pronounce my last name Holt all too often.

    Best time I ever heard it pronounced was over an intercom as Wheat.

    Yeah but TTP is a nickname. Harle is just wrong.

    My surname is also a first name, so people are forever calling me James instead of George. I ought to change it to Ampleforth or Hyde-Rawlinson or something to avoid any further confusion.

    Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I were as great as Paulo Wanchope.

    None of my names are difficult to pronounce, but my first name is the same as my dad's but I go by my middle name. I've been called by it by teachers and profs and anyone else who doesn't know better for years. I got so tired of correcting them that I stopped in University, but this lead to other problems as my first and last names are the same as a former Prime Minister. Somehow my profs still thought they were the first to come up with every joke they ever made regarding that fact.

    People add a D to my last name. My last name is a very common word used in everyday English and people still manage to mess it up. It makes me eat kittens.

    People never ever ever say my last name correctly.

    You know the people at the super market, why the hell do they feel the need to address you by your last name? It's like, just say "thank you for shopping with us" and leave out the damn name. They never pronounce it correctly, and it pisses me off because they don't NEED to say the name and yet they insist on reading the name off the receipt and then butchering it.
