I went to McDonald's one time and the white olodo manger couldn't pronounce my last name.  She was :  oooo,  oooonnnnn, nnnnn , ooo nnnaa. Nnnnn.  And everyone was laughing and waiting, looking around for who bears that name.  I was there without saying a word until people left.  Most people can pronounce it comfortably but the olodo manager couldn't .
