Stutter when introducing myself. I have 3 syllable name that is extremely rare. As a result, I have to introduce myself like twenty times for people to get my name right. Because of this, I have developed a stutter, so I actually can't even bloody pronounce my name correctly when first introducing myself to people. Being in college, this is extremely frustrating. What would kind redditors suggest I do to fix this?
