We can learn chai and yoga and namaste but not the names of the people it belongs to.
Seems more not wanting to make people uncomfortable which is fine, I have had to navigate the same.
When I come across a name I haven’t heard before, I just go out of my way to ask people how to pronounce their name and say it’s important to me. Sometimes demonstrating how to have the conversation of asking comfortably is the most important first step.
