Jocelyn is easily butcherable. The O in my name usually gets replaced with an A and I get referred to as Jaclyn. I've given up correcting people who I won't see on a daily basis because people tend to get huffy like I named myself something odd just to spite them. Heh.

But I really want to get others peoples names right--and wince in sympathy when people get them wrong (I have a friend named "Kirstin" who suffers a lot of this even from people who've known her a while). Aubrey is a wonderful name. And very memorable, even beyond your wonderful self. Traditional name of the Earls of Oxford. And then there's Sir John Aubrey, 17th century antiquary and discoverer of Stonehenge's Aubrey holes.
