When I tell you how to pronounce my name and then spell, I don't need you to pronounce it like you fucking want. I know how my name is pronounced, you don't get to correct me on my name.

Sorry guys, new here. I just needed to vent this out. Every fucking time I introduce myself to someone I tell them my name, and 90% of the time they have issues to pronounce it, but it's not hard if you fucking try. It's not like my name is indigenous of any kind...
Me: hi my name is Hugo. (The H is silent so you would pronounce it as "oogo"
90%of people: sorry, how do you spell that?
Me: H U G O
90%of people: Oh! Hugo (completely ignoring my pronunciation)
I don't engage them in a debate cause I know I will look like an asshole. But fuck you if you do this.

Why not just pronounce it 'ug' like the Troglodite you are.

They're not correcting you on your pronunciation. They're suddenly understanding so they say it out loud. I think you may need to relax a bit.

I think it's spelled M O R O N; pronounced Mor on.... or More On.

Hey, are you French, Spanish, or Italian? That would explain a lot (silent H and the "u" said as "oo" not "ew", as in English Hugo "hyoo-go").

“Hey, are you French, Spanish, or Italian? That would explain a lot (silent H and the "u" said as "oo" not "ew", as in English Hugo "hyoo-go").”
Like, for instance the French painter Jacques-Louis David's surname is said "dah-VEED", not "DAY-vid", and the "Louis" part is said "Lwee" or "Louie", not "Lu-iss".

You've been given a name that's a;so a device that demonstrates that there's a lo9t of really stupid people;e out there.
A proper name is pronounced as the bearer says it is..
That means if someones name is spelled "dfnedifdeifnhbieug and they say it's pronounced as "Smith" then you pronounce it Smith

Yeaah bro your parents must be retarded cause they spelled your name wrong... it's spelled Hugo so we will call you Hugo, if it was spelled properly maybe we would change. Deal with it

Your name is Hugo. The most common pronunciation is "hue-go".
Now if you tell me you pronounce it "u-go" and say the h is silent, the very next thing I will ask is "what language is that?" Why? Because every language has it's own rules of spelling and pronunciation. If you tell me Hugo is pronounced "u-go" in ,say, Latvian, I"ll take your word for it.
However, if you say well "u-go" is how I pronounce it and don't refer to a foreign language I will automatically know your just a egotistical jackass wanting attention.

The problem is that the phonetic is different in different languages. Example, the letter W is named double U. Why? It is not U, but the average American does not know, or pay any attention. I can mention many more situations, but people do not understand.

My name is Marc. Depending on where people are from, it is sometimes pronounced mahk or with a trilled R. Often in writing they will spell it Mark instead of Marc. Guess what, I don't fucking care! I'm more interested in the friendship I have with someone than their ability to pronounce my name right or remember that it ends in a c instead of a k. How fucking petty do you have to be to get hung up on this. Unbelievable. Seriously unbelievable.

Yes, that's the Spanish equivalent of "Columbus". It's properly spelled "Colón", as in "Jesus Colón".

Nah. They aren't Spanish at all. And they don't say "Colon" is Spanish. That's just how they pronounce it : "Cuh-lone". And no they don't use the accent mark ' when they spell it. They just don't like to hear people say "co-lun" as in colonoscopy. Dumbasses.

l too have a name that is difficult for the average mid western white guy to pronounce without some polite guidance. 99% of the times, with a few giggles mixed in, they get it and all is well. l deeply appreciate an honest effort.
But it's those One per centers at insist on the mispronounciation with that twinge of racial mockery in their demeanor that immediately get that totally unexpected savage smack across their smug white face that leaves a long line of spit trailing after their head as it is suddenly forced to accelerate to faces the person behind them.
The ones that then have the nerve to attempt to retaliate, l have beaten mercilessly deep into unconsciousness.
I have severed a few jail terms and have walked away safe and sound. They, on the other hand, have sustained physical as well as emotional trauma.
Now three of the four can not properly pronounce anyone's name as there was TBI damage. The fourth one, l have heard, urinates himself when he hears my name, wether it's pronounced correctly or incorrectly.
Had my ancestors done the same to those damn European thieves that showed up looking for gold, then my descendents would still own the land that l stand on.
Fucking white shit boys.
And... Oh, yes, l did keep their hats as a souvenir, sort of a culturally symbolic scalping. .
