..I'm sorry , but people , AleX ( .. thats e-X , "X" , people ) should ALWAYS be pronounced "Alecks" ... there is NO "C" or "K" sound for an "X" ... I don't give a damn what some old family custom says about how you pronounce someones name... Might as well say "old custom" says Tigers is pronounced "Teegirs" ...blah blah ... give me a friggin' break ... this has always been a pet peeve of mine Alec Box indeed ! What bull ! Oh , I know , there's a story behind it .. well , screw the story , AleX is AleX ... end of story !

... AND , Jordan( - Hare ) should never be pronounced "Jerrdun" ....
... frick all this spell one way and pronounce another ... if you wanna pronounce it Jerrdun , then spell it that way .. I say screw local bastardization of rules of grammar and spelling pronunciations !

You sound like an idiot.
You can spell your name GeauxGus and pronounce it Cocksucker for all you want. Because it's your name and you set the rules on it.
Alex Box's name is pronounced Alec Box.
Blex Bregman's name is not pronounced Alec Bregman.
Devery Henderson's name is not pronounced Jack Hunt.
