My name suddenly changes into Türüdi. {#lang_emotions_you_crazy}

 

 

maybe, just maybe because you Dutch people have a strange ( ) way of pronouncing things! {#lang_emotions_laugh_at} the street names in your country can only be rememberd as "this one", "that one", "the one with that river", "the one with 4 a´s and 6 t´s next to each other (in the name)"

 

I am afraid it must be something for Americans (of Polish descend...?) that they can´t pronounce our beautiful language. What is wrong with: ´Jonkheer Ruys de Beerenbroucklaan´? Easy, isn´t it? lol

I agree on what you say. I know someone by the name of "nayif" who had to change his name in france because it resembles "naive" and everyone used to laugh at his name.

 

I would say the name should be changed if it has a humiliating meaning in the other language.

Bobby might be a nice name for english speakers but in lebanon it means a puppy

My name in turkish means "paternal aunt"!

 

yeah, that´s hilarious I´m lucky that my name doesn´t have any meaning in english, nor does it resembe anything hahaha... but imagine being "Engin" and becoming "engine" in english for example...
