Just that really.
Nobody could pronounce my maiden name. I have an unusual forename too which, although the pronunciation seems obvious, people mistake it for a different but similar name.
As an introverted child, I used to cringe when my name was incorrectly called out by teachers, doctors etc.
Why would you knowingly inflict that upon your child?

To think that if you have to ask how to pronounce a name, you should not use it for your baby?
