Michael Wagner: Hello, my name is Michael Wagner. Although, I was actually born Michael Lack, L-A-C-K. But, since the age of about six, I've been Michael Wagner. That's Wagner, not Wagner, which is actually the correct German pronunciation. My parents went with Wagner, just to keep things simple and to spend a lot less time telling people, "It's actually pronounced Wagner."

So, my name is pronounced Michael Wagner, and why was I born Michael Lack? Well, that's a whole other story.
