Hear my friends say my name!
Watch Nick Angiers (Masters in Chinese Linguistics) teach Mihir Vaidya how to pronounce my name. With sushi photobombing by Alex Bloom.
Q: Why do you not have an English name?
A: I never felt comfortable with one because it wasn't part of my identity.
Q: Who are these people above?
A: Willing volunteers giving their lives and likeness for the love of my name.
Q: I'm gonna mispronounce your name!
A: I don't mind. The same name will be pronounced differently depending on one's native language. Think of the name "Thomas." It's pronounced diferently in French, English and Spanish.
