Harry Styles does some pretty amazing things, he sings, he acts, he rubs his butt against cars... but most importantly, he cannot pronounced Shawn Mendes' name.

WATCH: Harry Styles mispronounces Shawn Mendes on SNL

During the "Watermelon Sugar" singer's appearance on Saturday Night Live, Harry performed a sketch where he played a young, hot, gay social media manager for bread company Sara Lee.

In doing so, he accidentally used the company's Instagram account for his own personal use, like leaving thirsty comments on Nick Jonas' and Shawn Mendes' photos.

During, Harry pronounced the "Treat You Better" singer's name as Shawn Mendeez, not Mendes, and the internet went wild from it.

Some fans even urged Shawn to legally change how it is pronounced to this new, Hary Styles way because it is now superior...and guess what? Shawn agrees.

Replying to a fan who wrote, "I want to know if Shawn heard how Harry pronounced his last name @ShawnMendes". He said, "Yeah that's officially how it's pronounced now!"

So cute.

Even the SNL Twitter account couldn't handle it.
