That's why i called my program Diep (pronounced as the word 'Deep' in english), as nearly no one outside of Netherlands can pronounce 'Diepeveen'. Actually one of my family members managed to get a road called after them in Australia. The "Diepeveen-road". However, it's for sure non-dutch speaking English/Australians have no clue how to ever pronounce my name. The hard 'p' and the hard clear 'v' sounds that Dutch has are not there in english.
