Warning: Pretty good take off, but shaky landing on this one, so be prepared (in some respects, it's really kind of dorky). In which I discuss names, what they mean and how they effect us, and then read a poem, kind of named in reference to the Names Quilt.

My last name is frequently mispronounced as well, as Gramlin or something like that. I actually don't even hardly notice it most of the time. I consider it much more of a problem when folks mispronounce a first name.
Yeah. That makes sense. It's more personal. If I know I'm not going to get the name right I apologize ahead of time and say, "I'm going to say this wrong" or "I'm going to murder the pronunciation."
