    meh, break names down into syllables and its pretty easy

    kei ko

    ka te lyn (slightly harder as most would say kah instead of kay)

    Here are a some I've heard.

    Nucular instead of nuclear
    pisghetti instead of spaghetti


    A name being mispronounced

    Lorna instead of Lara


    And a word used in the wrong context.

    substance instead of sustenance
    " no man I need something with some substance, guy." (talking about a glass of water)

    The worst part is that all of these examples came from the same person.

    I have a german last name I think I gave up around grade five trying to tell teachers how to pronounce it. of course now amny years later I realize that the sound noone was able to produce can be done easily after a good kick in the gut
