Do you ever suspect that people mispronounce their own last names?

Asked by ANef_is_Enuf (26839points) November 19th, 2011

Though, I guess technically a name can take any pronunciation that the “owner” claims to be correct, sometimes I look at the spellings of peoples’ names and the way that their family pronounces it, and I’m sure that it can’t be quite right. I wonder sometimes if a “new” pronunciation (especially of very ethnic sounding names) has just evolved within the family over the years.
Do you think that happens?
