Hello

This is how I pronounce my own name when speaking English.

If you're adding me to a list of names, please use this name.

This is the name I want to be addressed by during a conversation.

Please use this name when adding my name to an address in a formal context. For example, on an envelope.

I use this name in formal contexts. For example, a letter addressed to me might start 'Dear Mr Glass'.

To speak about a person in English, you don't need to know their gender but you do need to know which pronouns to use. This information can't be determined from a person's name or what they look like, so we include it on everyone's page.
