I've said this before, but the kindest thing you can do when meeting a person with an unusual (to you) name is avoid: 1. Asking about it or how it's spelled 2. Making any obvious joke, pun etc. Not because it offends us, but because it spares us a boring, formulaic conversation https://twitter.com/can/status/1229790657570455555 …

This is a good rule for any kind of asymmetric novelty. The guy with two heads you just met doesn't want to talk about the second head. Maybe they're not on speaking terms. And the celebrity doesn't want to hear that you loved their movies—instead, tell them about your own movies

I came to terms with this. I used to hate hearing the same questions, but: people aren't asking maliciously, it can be a friendly conversation starter if I allow it, and I'd rather be tall than not!
