Your post confused me until about halfway through. Everyone doesn't have to know how to spell and pronounce every name correctly but it sort of irks me when people get annoyed when their creatively spelled name is mispronounced. It is one thing if the person has a fairly normal name (like Leah, Samuel, Daisy) and people are not pronouncing it correctly, because then the person attempting to pronounce it is simply ignorant. Your name would also be an exception as it is not creatively spelled. I do think that people should understand that names are pronounced differently in different countries or are spelled in different ways. When something is just made-up off of the top of ones head though, that doesn't make sense to me.
