Really Elise [is gorgeous by the way] isn't really hard to say? My mother's name is Marilia [Mah-rill-ee-uh] and almost everyone says it wrong, IMO it's not hard. She always get's Marie, Maria, etc. If anything I could see mar-uh-lee-uh but how do you get Marie? LOL.
I could see if a name was extremely hard to pronounce/remember but if you are repeating it over and over many times they should get it by then IMO, if they don't then I think they are just not caring [which is something that irks me].
I can't say all are ignorant [pr better word carless it seems only in certain situations like my teacher], she has my papers in front of her and was reading it before me and STILL kept saying Serena. I told her "it's Sabrina" she just looked at me and said "ok, Serena", oy.
