What burns me up is when people try to take a perfectly normal name and make it Ghetto-faulous.
My son's name is Jacques, as in Pepin (chef) or Cousteau (oceanographer). His name is pronounced in the French way, ZHOCK'. While at the doctor's office, this goofy nurse called his name as ja'-KWEZ. I was like WHO?
After the third time, I figured she was calling us since she finally said the last name.
