amen! or it gives the students an opportunity to laugh at the teacher when he/she mispronounces the name in front of the class because the students think the *teacher* is the stupid for not automatically knowing how to pronounce a 'misspelled' name.

Oh more than once I've had to kindly educate my kids on laughing at teachers... I look 14 and I go to work from classes the university so getting respect from them is hard enough to add something to the mix... not to mention my children of the corn tend to be into teasing their classmates on things like that.

So PLEASE it's not hard to spell a name right... I can still remember the name Olivia horribly butchered and someone posted it here. My parents taught me that languages are an important force out there (it's the reason I speak 3, going on 4) so think tha one day someone from another language will read something like Ahleeveighuh and think 'wtf??' when Olivia is a perfectly nice and recognizable name.

Ok, I extended myself... sorry!

Whenever teachers mispronounced my name, I always felt like they were laughing at me. I would just shrink and want to die of embarrassment, like it was my fault, lol. I've never actually considered that everybody was laughing at the teacher. As nice of a thought as it is, I don't think so, lol.
