anyone else got complicates names? [CLOSED]

Should probably note that my last name isn't actually difficult to pronounce or spell. The issue is that people often mistake the nationality (often for German) and as a result pronounce it differently.

Quote: Samius
I'm not really sure how to explain it. The finnish "a" is pronounced like the "a" in "father", but it's shorter. The "i" is like the "e" in "see", but it's shorter also. In fact the whole thing is pronounced really fast, like a casual blink of an eye.

I'm not sure if this helps, but I tried.


Sah-me?


That would probably be pretty close. I'll have to get into a group call someday and let you hear it.

An a that sounds like an r :/

Are you some kind of language witch, trying to corrupt the alphabet?


No, I'm Finnish.

My first names Jamie, although it sometimes gets mistaken for James or people spell it as "Jaime".

My last name is pretty simple, also people have written the "law" part of it as "lawe" which looks cooler tbh.

So your name is pronounced See Ay Vee?


Yes I went the way of the Warrior and legally changed my name to CAV.

You have better odds of calling me personally, since I'm usually not in group calls during the time you're online.
