Butchered
The good news: My article about account hacking was featured in a World of Warcraft podcast.
The bad news: The podcast host completely and totally butchered my name, including trailing off in the middle after a failed attempt. It ended up coming out as "Luke's...uh, it's hard to pronounce; Luke Es-nuer-ang...uh, I can't say it". Amusing, but painful.
It's on episode 2 of the Twisted Nether podcast, just a bit after the 12 minute mark, for the interested.

Really, it's not that hard. Your name is long, yes, but phonetically it's really not difficult. It's not like some of the Indian names I see at work. I work with Soundrarangum Rangalajulu (spell check doesn't like that name, haha) and Ramana Kulanthaivelu. I could understanding not being able to pronounce those, but "sneeringer" is phonetically straight forward. I'm sure it was amusing though. :)
