There has been criticism of how people pronounce her first name - with the suggestion that pronouncing this unfamiliar name incorrectly is some sort of ‘disrespect’, ‘racism’, or ‘misogyny’. I’m perverse enough to pronounce/spell it differently every time I refer to it.

(Please give me credit for spelling and pronouncing her very White, British surname correctly. It’s also interesting to look up her own father’s testimony to his reminiscences of his ancestral family having been slave owners.)
