My real name is Bruce. People have been poking fun at my name calling me "Moose" since 2nd grade. It wasn't until 10th grade that my best friend did away with the "Br" in my name and replaced it with a "M" to get "Muce".
Now I know that "Muce" shouldn't be pronounced like "moose" according to the English language, but what are you going to do? The only time it was ever a real problem was when I was coding for Cry Havoc. Any time someone would interview our development team for the purposes of a web radio show I'd have to explain the name so they would pronounce it correctly. At least explaining it is easier than finding a new nick name. Besides, after eight years, I've kinda grown attached to it.
