For example, Taylor Lautner recently revealed that he allowed his fans to mispronounce his name for years, stating that it’s pronounced “Lout-ner” instead of “Lawt-ner.” Similarly, “Twilight” star, Travis Kelce, admitted that he preferred not to correct people for decades, despite his name being mispronounced by many. Shockingly, the first time he corrected someone was around age 11. On the sidelines of a Chiefs vs. Miami Dolphins game, defensive tackle Chris Jones informed his teammates that “it’s not even Travis Kel-see” but rather “Travis Kels.”
