Did you know Dr. Seuss name is actually pronounced more like Zoyce or Soice (rhymes with voice, not moose)? And he wanted people to pronounce it correctly?

I’m actually usually unconcerned by how people pronounce things, but I think taking a man’s own name away goes a bit far.

I did know that. I don’t recall pronouncing it incorrectly since learning that fact, but I don’t talk about those books or their author frequently.

  Oops, I worded that funky. I didn’t mean to accuse you of doing that, just talking about people in general.
  
  I just think it’s an interesting fact.
