My pet peeve is the Finnish name “Yrjö”. It comes from the Greek name “Geôrgios”, which means farmer, but nowadays the word “yrjö” means vomit. ‘Unique spellings’ like some “Everleigh” also drive me crazy.

    My own. It just doesn’t roll off the tongue with my last name very well. I get tongue tied and sound like an idiot giving a fake name.
