    Gate agent is welcoming people by name. Uh-oh. "Andrew, have a good flight! Patricia, welcome!" I hand her my ticket. "Please don't do it. You'll butcher it." "Mr…" "You'll butcher it." "I can do it! Mr…" "I promise you'll butcher it" "Mr [hideous sounds]! Did I get it right?"

        People who have a weird name (by local standards) spend 38% of their life talking about that name or hearing people mangle it. Help us out in situations like this, and on introduction ask about literally anything else. You will immediately win our hearts.

        If you're in a situation where you have to say a difficult name, like introducing someone at a conference, ask as many times as you need to. Don't be shy to ask. I'd rather tell you fifty times than hear you wing it on stage in front of a packed auditorium (as has happened to me)

        The greatest six months of my life was being an exchange student in Russia with my annoying classmate Wayne. Wayne does not trip off the Russian tongue like my name does. Watching him suffer during daily roll call was the happiest I've ever been.

        Want to know how to say my name? Here's a sound file, have at it in the privacy of your own home. http://idlewords.com/say_my_name.m4a  Just please don't make me have the least interesting conversation of my life about it again.

        We also have the technology to ask someone to say their name into your phone, so you can practice it and remember. The point of my rant: people are too shy in situations where we want to help them get names right, and too brazen in situations where names are not necessary to say

        Why do you insist on using your Moon name everywhere? You could have been a normal Matt.

        Weird. “Pinboard” might not be a common name, but I wouldn’t think it difficult to pronounce.
