@Faisal

I think a continuation of this discussion is whether and how frequently will you want to correct the pronunciation of your name, if ppl keep butchering it?

For example, “Faisal” is not a difficult name to pronounce, in my opinion, but many goras insists on replacing ‘s’ with ‘z’ and pronounce it with all separate syllables, like Faa-ee-zaal. Sometimes I let it go, but if I figure I’d be dealing with the person for a period of time, I do correct them, and they invariably appreciate the correct pronounciation.

Ever tried to pronounce a sirilankan last name? Even Bond faints.
