Baby name hard to pronounce

Hello all mummies, my baby will be coming in 3months time and it's my first! I have a name in mind, it's an existing name but very uncommon is Asia country. My husband's English is not that good so he finds the name weird and hard to pronounce! He agrees that the name is unique though! Now I worry that many people can't pronounce E.g Teachers and Peers. What to do?
