It doesn't bother me if people in other countries change the pronunciation of my name to suit their accent. I find a lot of people find Rosemary difficult to say (I especially noticed it in Morocco and Tunisia) so I often just introduce myself as Rose. I just find it easier.

And I suppose I instinctively Anglicise people's names, especially if they pronounce them with sounds which are unfamilliar in my language. I think most people do and I don't really see the problem with it. If someone protested then I might change but I think it's a fact of life of living in a foreign country.
