A nurse with a difficult name??

[Moonkitten]

I'm a PreNursing student and my name is very...unique and hard to pronounce. Ever since I learned my name as a child I wanted to change it. I remember getting tired of correcting people so I just let them pronounce it any kind of way, it wasn't their fault my name didn't make any sense. I've been worrying about patients or employers not being able to pronounce it or thinking that it's stupid. Introducing myself to people is really annoying because sometimes even I stutter on my own name (which is SO embarrassing) and people never remember it. I was thinking of changing my name to a shorter or similar version of it, something that people can understand and pronounce, it will be easier for me and everyone that I meet. But the name change process seems like it would take so long. Are there any nurses with unique names? Should I change my name to something simpler? What do you all think?

My real name is "Daveringonnawannahana Doremefasolatedo" and you can see what I go by.
