My last name is Albanian and it’s a very unique name with a few thousand people carrying this name around the world.
It’s not easy to read or pronounce
Me and my brother pronounce it the same way while my father’s pronunciation is different than ours.
Do you have a common last name?
Or a more unique last name?

My last name is hard to say correctly if read usually the teacher would get my name wrong when reading off a list even though its a common last name.

Yes.
Even in my country …
My last name is from part of now Croatia,where my ancestors lived,before WW2 as Serb minority…
After the war,My grandfather moved to Serbia,but mostly feel like I don’t belong here,as mentality issue.
Still feel like stranger.
My last name means nothing and it’s very hard to pronounce.
Serbs often laugh when they hear my last name…

Mine isn’t hard to say but most people pronounce it wrong if they read it. Because the g in it is pronounced Je if that makes sense. I have my mums last name.

Mine is fairly unique. But very easy to pronounce. I have no idea where it comes from but I’m sure slavery has something to do with it because it is certainly not of African origin.

It’s not so bad to pronounce but it is hard to spell. I always have to spell my name when I tell someone my name and it needs to be spelled
But if you read my name you would be able to pronounce it easily… usually
It’s not a common last name at all. From my research online, it’s only found in the U.S

My last name is German and is very unusual and unique. It is also very uncommon. Everyone pronounces it incorrectly and I have stopped trying to correct people.

My dad is full blooded Italian so I have an Italian last name. If you live in the United states and have this name we are related. Apparently there are some people in Italy that have the same name. It’s not hard to pronounce just unusual.

There are about 6-million people who have the same last name/family name/surname as I. As with the majority of Chinese/Korean/Vietnamese words, my last name is a one syllable word pronunciation. Variations of pronunciation are dependent on the region my last name is spoken but how my last name is written remains the same.
