What's Your Name Again?????

Well Being that I have a strong Greek last name, you can about imagine how students would want to say my name right. I introduce myself as Mr. Pappadackis. That's P-A-P-P-A-D-A-C-K-I-S. I have some students who try their darndest to say my name right. It's quite amusing at times. For instance there is one little girl who comes up everyday to me and says, "excuse me is it Mr. Pappa, Pappada, Puppadaktis????" She tries so hard. Then I reply smiling, "Pappadackis." "Yes you were very close this time." One time she called me Mr. Pteradactyl (which is a dinosaur)

Anyway you just have to laugh.
