Mary's pretty standard, and I rarely get mispronunciations, but, occasionally I get a "Maria" or "Marie" and I've had junk mail addressed to "Mark" before. It's the last name that seems to get the most abuse: Layton. Seems pretty straight-forward, but I get "Lawton", "Lawson", "Lighten", "Lykon", "Leekon", "Leethum", "Lithum", and occasionally some pronunciations I can't even dissect into printable form.
