ginnyde Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 My name is Ginny, not Jenny, not Joanie, not Jeannie. Why can't people get it right. I even say Ginny, like in gin and tonic and they say "Oh, yes, of course Jenny". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ann Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Good point, Ginny. I hate it when I tell people my name is Ann and they almost always reply...."Is that with an "E" ???? Aren't there any more just plain old Ann's in the world???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.C. Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 My name is Jacqueline and people can't prononce it right so I always say my name is Jackie and they don't understand WHY I should go with Jackie when Jacquuuuuuuuelin is my real name. My mother had the name Janine for me but by the time my father got to the church all he did remember was a name starting with a J.......could have been worst.

lilyjohn Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 My name is Lillian, not LilYun. My inlaws never learned to pronounce my name properly. It really grates on my nerves when people do that My rant today would be people who interupt every time you go to speak. It is very rude and I lived with it so long that I just won't hardly stand for it any more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nushka Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 My name is Nina...pronouced 9ah. Not NEENA. I can understand how someone can read it and mistake the pronunciation, but after I tell them 10 times it gets on my nerves. 9ah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
