I submitted the pronunciation of my family name using my iPhone by recording an MP3, pointed out a piece of paper with the family name on it, saying our name several times. Submitted waiting to see if its accepted. I used the representation of my name that I created when I was freshman at BYU and went to the social where we drew our names as pictures.
