Why this idea? My name is Maciej and, after moving abroad, I've found that my name is hard to pronounce for others and might make them uncomfortable when starting a conversation with me. Hopefully, if you work in an international environment, you can make people's life easier by recording your name and sharing your profile in email footers or Linkedin.
There are around 300 recorded names—a hundred recorded by Chinese native speaker surnames, about 150 Polish and 50 Ukrainians. If your name is missing, record it, others might need it one day.
The app is Node.js + React. I hosted it on AWS Beanstalk. I can share my experience on how to setup SSL, auto-scaling, CLI tool and answer more questions here or directly on a video chat call.
If you are up for it create a profile, record your name and call me so we can test how the video chat works :)
Currently, there is a 5 minute limit for video calls but the first 100 users to create profiles and record names get this upgraded to 60-minute calls. Just let me know, you can use the form here https://www.sayoname.com/contact
