It's an unusual name, and like any other unusual name, it's easy to mispronounce until you are used to it

He may be dyslexic

But during that whole 'SAY MY NAME, SAY MY NAME' episode, Saira was being an intimidating bitch

some people genuinely have a kind of sound-blindness when it come to names; sometimes it depends on where you're from, too, and which names and collections of sounds you are familiar with.

my name is Jan - how hard can it be? but half of my non-native english speaking customers call me Jane, no matter how often i've gently pointed it out. those having the worst problems seem to come from eastern europe, lithuania/russia, and areas in africa. my chinese, indo-asian and western europeans seem not to have the same dfficulties.
