'I'm changing my name to Wednesday - I'm a 6ft man and don't care if it's weird'

While we can't choose our names from birth, we always have an option to change them later in life. That's exactly what one man is planning to do - but he knows his family and friends might judge him for it.

The bodybuilder, who lives in America, explained how almost everybody pronounces his name wrong because it's spelt in such a 'unique' way. He said: "My original name is basically unpronounceable by anyone but a small group of people - and the way they pronounce it's just terrible. Official transcription makes it so much worse. I would never spell my name like this. No wonder people are so confused about it."
