If you're bringing a guest on, don't assume you know how to pronounce their name. A name might read as "Anne" but be pronounced "Anna". You might be pretty sure where you put the emPHASis on which sylLAble, but you could be wrong.
Some people will tell you when you're getting it wrong. Most are too polite, especially if it's only a little bit off. But it never hurts to ask.
(I'll try and post more of these as they occur to me.)
