Anyone with a non-British name?

If there's anyone on here who has grown up in the UK with a non-British name, how did you feel about it while growing up and how do you feel about it now?
Do you love it or would you rather your parents gave you a "normal" British name? Have you ever struggled with fitting in issues and does it bother you to correct people on spelling/pronunciation?

Kinda surprised that no-one has pointed out you can be called Deepthi, Stelios or Oluwafemi and still be British...

Perhaps because it is entirely irrelevant.
