Mispronouncing 'Aeneas' as something awkward...?

I do not know about your friend's knowledge of Greek Mythological characters, but do know that people unfamiliar with the name will pronounce is as they would pronounce the word Anus. They may do it unintentionally, but school kids being school kids, you will soon be the butt(pun intended) of all the jokes in school. I think your parents are right. Well, you can't win 'em all !
