Most of the real life examples, other than intentionally unpronounceable things such as Prince\'s alternate name or that guy with a paragraph block name, should be cut. The trope isn\'t TheUnpronounceableByEnglishSpeakers. It\'s about words that are completely unpronounceable by \'\'humans.\'\' Some of them, like the Indian name one, are completely ethnocentric.

And half of them are \\\'\\\'perfectly pronounceable\\\'\\\' by an Anglophone. They\\\'re just spelled unintuitively. Like La-a as La-dash-ah. Any English speaker can say that. They just need to know how.
