In the video shared by Variety, Adam recalls a moment when he first met Brendan.

“When I first met Brendan Fraser… That’s your full name, right? Brendan Fraser?” Adam says, pronouncing his last name like many will do. However, it’s incorrect.

Brendan then does correct him, and gives him a tip on how to say it – it rhymes with razor.

“You shave with a razor, you should try standing closer to it,” he joked.

Later on in the video chat, Adam does pronounce it wrong again.

“Ok. F*** it. No one’s ever gotten my name right,” Brendan replied to it.

Just last month, Adele revealed that fans have been mispronouncing her name as well.
