You may not be happy about how Siri pronounces your name. If Siri is pronouncing your name (or any name) incorrectly, you can easily add phonetic first/last names so that Siri can pronounce them correctly. Here is how:
- Open the Contacts app
- Select the contact that Siri is pronouncing incorrectly
- Tap “edit”, tap “add field” then add phonetic first and last names; just spell it how it sounds
- Tap “Done”
