**grin** I grew up with schoolmates with names like Thibidoux, Heubert, Matthieu, Garnier and Boisseux (and my grandmama was a DeJarnet from Quebec), so I know what you mean. My friend Heubert didn't mind being called 'Hugh', but if you said his entire first name you had to pronounce it 'EEEY-beyr' or else.
