Jake Gyllenhall
Jake's surname is one of the most surprising on the list, pronounced 'Yee-Len-Hey-Lo'.
The Hollywood actor is of Swedish decent and told TV host Conan O'Brien the correct pronunciation of his name.

Given the Dune star's French decent, this one can be difficult for those who don't speak the language.
It turn's out Timothée's first and last name is pronounced 'Timo-Tay Shala-May', rather than Timothy.
Amanda Seyfried
Amanda's last name is often pronounced 'Say-Fried' but the Mamma Mia star confirmed that it is in fact 'Sigh-Frid'.
