Hang out with enough Hispanics and you will. Peralta is Dominican, he could as easily have been a Yoni.
Those hs are something Spanish doesn’t have, we find them very confusing (we find our own hs very confusing too, what with being mute and there only for historical reasons, but hey, ours have been in the family for a long time). My first English lesson (taken time and again in both 4th and 5th grade) included Johnny being under the table and I think we misspelled his name every which way except in Cyrillic.

On the wall of a church, Osberto Parsley. Fantastic Harry Potter name. 😃
