Do you find it annoying and/or offensive if people mispronounce your name?

Answer 1

It's silly when you look at the big picture of life, but it does irritate me!!!

Answer 2

OFFENSIVE? I dont find that Offensive at all, Annoying?..It depends on the day im having and how many times they mispronounced my name.

Answer 3

I do not. My first name is pretty easy, but my last name is very difficult to pronounce. So since I was very young I got used to people mispronouncing it, so it does not bother me at all.

Answer 4

I do find it annoying, but C'est la vie !!! I dont let it get me down. Saying its offensive, is way to harsh in a world of so many ethnicities its way too hard !!! I get some wrong too and hope not to offend anyone in the process

Answer 5

My name is pretty common, so people seldom mispronounce it. It is interesting though, to see how other people interpret your name.

Answer 6

I gets on my last nerve! My first name only has six letters and people are dragging it out forever and forever! When I was in kindergarten, people used to call me Ariel. I'm like, I don't even have an 'l' in my first name! Where the hell did you get that from?

Answer 7

People always mispronounce my name. I really dont care if they do.

Answer 8

Yes, I find it very annoying because my name is easy to pronounce but some people don't say it right.

Answer 9

Yes, because the only way to mispronounce Gabriel is to call me Gabrielle and then my entire gender changes. lol

Answer 10

I actually I find it amusing when people try to pronounce my last name, especially when telemarketers call my house. If they don't pronounce it right, which they never do, I just say no sorry you have the wrong number no one lives here by that name :)

Answer 11

A bit annoyed & offended at the same time but I just ignore it. It's so little to worry about
