USA, Canada / Poles in America: How do you pronounce your Polish surname? [128]

When I spell it phonetically for people I always spell it Fan-a-lou-la and I do tell everyone the g is silent. I love my last name and I don't even want to take my husbands name when I get married. I love that it attaches me to my father and brother. It's a tough one, especially growing up, but I love it!!

USA, Canada / Poles in America: How do you pronounce your Polish surname? [128]

My last name is Sicilian and I can tell you that it is not just Polish names that are butchered. Especially when coming from the native country to the US...my last name is Faniglula...which now, after years of being misspelled and mispronounced, makes almost no sense in the Italian language....Anyone wanna try it!? Haha
