Help[Opinions] Purposefully mispronounced names
A coworker of mine's cousin had a baby she named Chloe. Nice, right? However, little Chloe's mother is insistent that the name be pronounced without the final "ee" sound...so, just Chlo. To rhyme with blow, or snow.
I have never heard of this before - demanding a mispronunciation of a name. Has anybody else seen this done before?? The only example I can think of is the difference between the pronunciation of Bette Davis and Bette Midler's names...but this is a little different. It's a strange new twist in naming practices if this is a more common thing than I realize!
