You're mispronouncing his name.
It's: I-am-a-leavin'-ya!!
Ferrgettit, Tennessee. It's a sign he ain't gonna be with y'all for too long.

Cool. It sounds like Nico nine-teen-ninety-eight-ah-va. I'll just call him that!
Btw, what year was Nico born?

At the awards ceremony, the female announcer got a horrified look on her face when she realized she couldn't say his name but she needed to announce him since he'd won MVP. She suddenly looked at the camera and just screams, "NICO!"
It was hilarious (and how most English speakers feel when confronted with an unfamiliar surname with multiple syllables).

You should hear how a lot of our common English names get absolutely butchered in pretty much every non-english speaking country overseas. We're not the only guilty ones.

It makes sense. You gotta get used to seeing surnames that are unfamiliar just like any other bit of language. But the initial shock can be hard to get past.
