My name is "Pavel", and usually ask Americans to put the accent on the second syllable - which is incorrect, but they can't pronounce my name correctly anyway when they put the accent on the first syllable, and it sounds more wrong to me than the way I prefer to have it pronounced. Apologies to all the other Pavels out there; I've been training everyone I've met to pronounce it wrong. But it's the way I prefer to be addressed.
