Speaking of pronunciation, I asked my Croation girlfriend how to
pronounce Hrvoje, so I've got a slightly better idea now (having heard
it from a native), although I'm not sure I could manage to say it
properly myself yet :)

Hrvoje dude, maybe you should record yourself saying your name (much
like the one with Linus saying his name and how he pronounces Linux) ?
