Old Pet Peeve!

I have plenty of pet peeves and someone just reignited a very old pet peeve that I have almost forgotten.


From a personal point of view, people who can't pronounce other people's name have are either, short tongued, ignorant or simply can't be bothered about who they are referring to.


Name. As much as I love my name Fatihha, I changed it to Fateha, so that you can easily break it down to 3 syllabus Fa-Te-Ha, as compared to the double H in Fatihha which people CONFUSED it with Fatima 90% of the time.


When you send letters to corporates, of course you wouldn't use your MSN nick name for that matter. But annoyingly, how can such corporates spell your name WRONGLY even though you signed off properly as Nuur Fatihha (and they can actually stupidly just cut and paste the god damn name).


In clinic's, the doctor's assistant will call me Fatima, and I won't even give a twitch because it is not my name you are calling. All they know is pronounce Xtian names and amazingly, they also sometimes pronounce Chinese names wrongly.

As much as others think that your name is not their problem, I think they should actually take the effort to learn how to pronounce.


We should all adopt an English name if that's what it takes to be recognised properly.


On a lighter note...

School reopens on 1st July!

...Because i frigging care about you people!

See you!
