Recently, I moved to the UK due to the war in Ukraine and have noticed that people here struggle to spell my name correctly. As a result, I would like to ask for suggestions on alternative versions of the name Vitalii that are easier to pronounce. Thank you in advance for your replies.
I would definitely suggest losing the second

at the end perhaps, that looks weird. Or maybe go for “Vitaly” (which you can tell people spells like V + Italy).(Incidentally, a couple years back, I had email contact with someone named “Vitalis”, which I thought sounded like a female and vaguely flower-y name. Only when we finally met in person did I notice he was male. Somehow he didn’t seem too irritated by me having misgendered him in multiple emails.)
Are you a mind reader? I thought exactly about that omg
Vitalis is an older brand for men’s hair products here in the US. My grandfathers used it. 😊
