it's still a little different because the poc name will be something like "Abhi" and the slav name will be something like "Chojcznowski"
POC names are often transliterated into what you could guess phonetically
Bonus points for 'mixed race' kids having someone try to pronounce their entirely Western name in the most orientalist way possible
I can't relate entirely, but as a black person named Angel, my name is pronounced the English way.
However, I do get (non-Hispanic) people thinking it's proper to pronounce it the Spanish way in some instances.
Tbh, I didnt expect the post to get much people relating, but I come from a weird background of
midwestern catholic eastern euro settlers from the late 1800s, and we always have to tell people (ngl mainly prots around here) how to pronounce our name. The weird thing is, I've literally been to the mf place my family came from, these people were peasants, and eastern europe is beautiful. I want to go back.
