please dont ask "whats your english name?" if they want to use an english name they would have introduced themself with that... please dont do that... its pretty anglocentric and uncomfortable |

yeah if you want to anglicize your name by changing the spelling a bit or even choose a different name when you speak english thats totally fine just dont force others to do it like dont ask non-native english speakers to change their name if they introduce themselves with their actual name |

im canadian i have an english name it would make me uncomfortable if someone asked me to change my name when i was speaking french or turkish (which i both know) because im not entirely interested in going by different names for speaking different languages if someone wants to, i mean, thats fine, but if someone doesnt want to, please respect that, is what im saying lol |
