SC - Names (OT)

[Sharon R. Saroff]

My mundane married name is Saroff.  As a result of having this for a
married name my first name has suddenly gotten changed from Sharon to Sarah
and my last name gets all kinds of mispronounciations and spelling
(Farrell, Saross, Sarog, to give a few).  Even spelling things out doesn't
help to correct things.
