Jonathan Auxier: Hello, my name is Jonathan Auxier. I have a very strange last name, and the truth is there is no correct pronunciation of it. In fact, wherever you go you're going to hear a different way of saying it. For example, in the mountains of Kentucky, they say Auxier, and in Illinois they say Auxier, and out west they say Auxier. But in Canada, where I grew up, where there is a French influence, people will always say Auxier. And so that's my name.
