Someone brought up Stephen King and Stephen Hawking, OPs take is yes, they pronounce their names stee-ven, but that they’re pronouncing their own names incorrectly.

I totally agree on your take about not being able to pronounce your own name wrong!

I love the name Naomi (nay), I’m from the US midwest and that’s always how I’ve pronounced it. It is annoying and frankly rude when people don’t even try to pronounce someone’s name correctly, geographical region isn’t an excuse.
