Re: We talk about the slaughter of spellings, what about pronunciations?
I almost never meet people who pronounce my name right the first time, as they usually say bree-AWN-uh instead of bree-ann-uh. It used to really bother me when I was younger, but now I don't mind. In fact, I think that pronunciation sounds prettier, and anyway if it wasn't my own name I'm sure that's how I'd pronounce it too.I do also constantly have adults look at my name in writing and then call me Brittany. I mean, does it really take that much time to read more than just the first three letters? I don't even like the name Brittany.Other than that, though, I don't really have any problems with pronunciations.
