      Even then, I hope that people don't see people reading or pronouncing your name wrong as something too be too annoyed about, as long as the person is being genuinely nice about it and tries their best, you can always correct them. You might not need to correct delivery people _if_ they aren't going to say your name much, but if you're spending more time with them you should hopefully correct them.
      Just don't be too shy about it :)!
      You don't have to have an unusual name for it to be mispronounced, but it's probably viewed differently when you already have a name that people aren't used to seeing.
      Anyways, I just hope that you aren't taking it too seriously, as in more serious than it needs to be.
      And I hope the people around you aren't being ridiculous and stupid :0 but there will likely always be at least one person who you come across that is.
      And I suppose this message could be for anyone reading :-)

      As a person whose name everyone gets wrong, when I make calls to customer service or other people who have to spend all day on the phone with strangers, I play a little game show in my head where I win a prize if I guess the spelling of their name correctly on the first try. They usually laugh about the game show part. Sometimes they're amazed that I guess right. It helps to work for many years in a school. Lots of exposure to new names and spellings.

    this honestly reminds me of something in primary. We had a kid from Indian heritage (never asked if he moved here or was born here, didn't matter to me, he was a cool friend) whom we had a ritual whenever a sub read out his name, which was always to yell, as a class, the correct pronunciation. It had two r's pronounced as d's, never looked up if it was a traditional name or anything. He was just the friend we all knew strangers would misname and as a class, we would not put up with it.

      We had a finnish kid in class named James, and of course all new substitute teachers said it like most people would like ‘’Jayms’’. But his name is not said that way since he is finnish, and many of the kids in our class would find it funny when the sub teacher read out his name in english and we would kinda rip the teacher off and then tell them the correct way lol so James didn’t have to do it himself every time. It’s supposed to be said like Yamés. but i get that it’s confusing for a random stranger or teacher who might only have heard it said like James Bond’s name is

      When a whole class comes together for the kid who is a different ethnicity/culture/background and kinda laughs at the teacher rather than at the student I just find it wholesome lol
      We were lucky to have a good school environment where everyone was quite unproblematic and kind to the ‘’different’’ kids. I have later realized so many schools are not like this and love bullying the ones that stand out
      The yelling in unison also happened a few times for us when telling the teacher the pronounciation of James’ name

      NZ is pretty multicultural, though I have noticed most of those from China adopt a "european" name, which is kind of sad to me.
      For extra fun when I worked on a multinational phone line I had occasion to try to pronounce last names, and would always apologise, make my attempt, then ask how close I was, which I think people appreciated as I had a lot of success

    Don't sweat it about your name. My sister's name is also pronounced "alyssa" and hers does start with an a. Doesn't stop people from saying "aliza" and never spelling the name correctly. I actually think the way my parents spelled her name is far easier to sound out than the typical spelling because it doesn't have a y, but what can you do. Shes accepted people will never get her name right first try.

    god do I know the struggle. My name is Andan pronounced andin and yet somehow, people call me aidan and it bothers me but usually they get it down. the only two things I hate are, I will never be able to buy a name souvenir thingy, and like you said in the video people mispelling my name despite me explaining it as clearly as possible or it being right in front of them. My elementary school had a junior coach program where you get to teach the younger kids like 1st graders different games. We all had to fill out forms with our name at the top and yet my name tag still said "Anden" despite the form I gave them and the four years I spent at that school. It doesn't help that I am and always have been a shy person who cannot handle confrontation so I never got it changed.
