This is why we should support Unicode: so that a nice clear notation like the International Phonetic Alphabet could be used for this.

That way, Lennart could describe the pronunciation of his name using freaky-looking symbols that nobody knows how to pronounce, increasing global confusion still further. Surely a worthy goal.

Clearly the correct solution is a sound sample saying "Hi, I'm Lennart Poettering, and I pronounce Poettering 'Poettering'" bundled in with the systemd source.
