A thread for either (a) ways you think people frequently mispronounce your name or (b) how you think you pronounce another user's name and then get brutally shot down.
For example, I thought for like a year that Aristophanes was pronounced "arr-iss-toe-fanes", with the long a at the end like pain. Apparently, it's "arr-iss-to-fannies". How bizarre!

Mine is pronounced nut maef-fireAlso, what is NM doing? Worst play I’ve ever seen.I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.I'm guessing you haven't read the game and probably never will? Why even sign up to play?-

Because I was checking if I was pronouncing the "Dav" part right so I couldn't just write "Dav", so I needed a "w" to show the wwww sound but I couldn't write "Daw" because that won't be read how I want it so I just
