You've seen and talked about Arianna Grande and Chrissy Teigen a lot though the years, but did you know that you're pronouncing their names wrong?

  In an interview on Beats1, Ariana revealed that Grande isn't said exactly how you may have been thinking.  Once the video of that made its rounds on Twitter, Chrissy Teigen revealed that she too has been the victim of mispronunciation. "Word! gave up long time ago. last name tie-gen not tee-gen," she said on Twitter.  I mean who knew right?  Are you the victim of name mispronunciation? Are you quick to correct someone when they pronounce your name wrong? Are you offended when your name is pronounced wrong?
