Pronunciation - Help or Hindrance?

For years I pronounced Solveig "Sole-VEEG" which I love. Then I learned the 'correct' pronunciation is closer to Sylvie. I don't like it so much now.
On the other hand, I hated Ceridwen because I pronounced it "Serry-dwen". Now I know it's 'correct' pronunciation is "Kerrid-when". I love that!

Are there times when learning the 'correct' pronunciation of a name changed your opinion of it?
