Yeah, I definitely understand that choking feeling. My name is only 2 syllables but I always get super stuck on the first one. I have found it helpful if someone else says it first, like if I'm at an appointment and my name gets called to go in the I don't have that much issue if I need to give it again later. Usually I have to just tough it out, but if whoever I'm talking to can guess it for me I can leave it. I know a lot of us hate when people try to finish our words for us, but if they can guess right and it means I can stop suffering I'm good with it, lol.
