How have people mispronounced your name? How is it supposed to sound?

Ohmygod. As you may have noticed, my name is Leigh. It is the female version of Lee, and therefore is pronounced the same. I never thought it was a terribly difficult or challenging name, but experience has proved otherwise. The most common mispronunciation is Leah (either Lee-ah, or Lay-ah). However, my two favorite mispronunciation's are Lay-ig-(ha) (for those who feel the need to sound out each letter) and Liege, the latter of which took on the spelling of Leej and became a nickname. Honestly, I'm baffled.
