Until one of the associates (herself Jewish, but not in the least observant) called me into her office to suggest that since so many clients were having difficulty with my name, I should just drop the first letter and officially become Hani. My response: "Sure, Uzanne." Never heard another word about it. |
Good for you! Hebrew/Yiddish names can be hard for those unfamiliar, but they are all learnable - and even if they are slightly off, so what?
