Help[Opinions] Re: and more to the point ...

I agree.
We chose to name our daughter Clarisse (as opposed to Clarice), assuming that people would know how to pronounce it.
They don't.
She is commonly referred to as either , klar-is, klah-riss-ee or like Clarissa. The thing is - I can't be angry with people for not knowing, and sometimes I don't even correct them if they are strangers because it doesnt matter THAT much to make a big deal about it.
