In response to the reader who reported trouble pronouncing "robmcj": I am pleased that the name is cropping up often enough in conversation for you to seek guidance, and impressed that you're taking it seriously.

I think your problem is you've been trying to pronounce it as raw bum kudge, which is hard to say. The official pronunciation on the birth certificate, and the one that most people prefer, is rob muck jay.

I hope you and your friends find that easier.
