If your name was difficult to pronouce for people, would you introduce yourself using a nickname or your middle name?

Or, repeat yourself until they say it correctly

I usually say my name, and when it is mispronounced back to me, I agree with whatever they thought it was.

@itsok Maybe I should start that. Then when they call me by the mispronounced name to get my attention, I won't answer

When I am with someone I know, and they hear someone else mispronounce my name, they will correct the person. It makes me feel uncomfortable.
