You mean Ralph "Yes I know there's an L in my first name but you should still pronounce it 'Rafe'" Fiennes?

[human_typhoon]

Go you!

I spent the longest time teaching my mom how to say his name. She'd always get half of it right (the first or the seconf name) and then forget how to pronounce the other half!
