Mostly, I just think the people that mispronounced Suzanne must have been idiots. However, if someone's name is being mispronounced and they're too shy or whatever to correct those people, then it's partly their fault. They should speak up for themselves. If people knew they were wrong they would probably stop mispronouncing the name. From your post, it seems like you were the one who ended up correcting everyone, so you were the one who was really bothered by it. If Suzanne herself never said anything about it she must not have cared that much.
By the way, if someone is still mispronouncing a name after they've already been corrected, it would be fun to just start mispronouncing their name too. Start calling Bob "bobe" and Sally "sawl-ligh".
