Between them ,the Americans and the Ausies have also managed to mess up and old Gaelic name also. I refer to Caitlin (Kathleen) which they all pronounce as Kate-lyn. The sad thing is that due to various soaps from both those lands their pronounciation has slipped into use over here too.Mind you, if you take in some of the first names found in Jerry Springer land, Koalin and Kate-lyn are fairly harmless. Also in Wales, I have never heard Megan called Maygan, another popular U.S. mispronouncian seeping into common usage in the U.K.
