Nicky Hager’s surname is pronounced HAR-ger. You’d think people would know that by now.

Hager, rhymes with lager.
I correct people a lot.
Me? I’m not even sure how my name is pronounced. Two syllables? Three? I couldn’t tell you, and don’t particularly mind.
Edge-ler, Edg-el-er, Edge-lar, Ed-gel-er, Ed-gel-ar, etc. etc. As long as it’s not a hard G (like in gall), I’m usually fine with it.

Luckily for me “Wood” is fairly easy to pronounce.
