My dad emigrated from Norway to the US. After he got here he found that nobody could pronounce his name (Kjell) because the Kj sound doesn’t exist in American English. After a while he gave up and went with “shell”.

I had a friend whose Dad was named "Knut" - he normally got newt.
Do you think it makes a difference to experience to "not have" a first name?
