Noticing someone with a double-barrelled last name and long first name.
Made me remember a person I met with a triple hyphenated last name! Must've been tough to wield day-to-day!

For your regular every-day name, eg introducing yourself (not your full legal name) how many syllables does it take to say it?

I'm lucky with just 3 syllables, though my surname is weird (Finn) and needs spelling.
I always envied people I'd hear on the phone at work who could just say their name and it was clear how to spell itโฆ
"Hi this is Dave Smith, can I check my order?"More annoying must be a name that sounds ordinary but you have to spell it still:
"Hi it's Deayve Smith - that's spelled Dee ee ay vee aych ee," Condolences my friends. ๐

I've had some Tamil colleagues with super long names - that must be hard to use in western countries.
