Judge is calling the docket, comes to a name and just ...stops.
Everyone who had looked at the docket is on alert, wondering how this will go down.
On cue, a guy stands up and says it's pronounced "Shu theed". Apparently the "i" sounds as a short "u", and the "e" and the "a" become a long "e".

Also run into some strange last names like a family with the last name Coward. They pronounced it Co - ward. Then there's Vietnamese names like Dung. Ng is actually a pretty common last name, run into those many times.

I once work with a lady named Lily and she married Mr. Lee. She refused to change her last name to her husband's.
