As a Bilingual person, the biggest thing I care about is a name that is in my language/culture but is easily pronounceable by others who have never heard of that name. Nothing wrong if it is tough to pronounce of course but as an American Citizen (Indian Origin), my wife and I named our kids keeping that in mind and we have a 95% success rate :) where non Indians can still pronounce it correctly.

> we have a 95% success rate You have twenty children, 19 of which have names that are easily pronounced by Americans?

  OP probably is estimating that people correctly pronounce the names they've chosen about 95% of the time.

As someone with a never correctly pronounced name, it doesn’t bother me. You get over that quickly.
