Presumably also because there aren't any other Trents whereas there are plenty of Harrys, Waynes, and so on.
Commentators don't use it.

Why does everyone call TA-A Trent?
Surely it’s Alexander-Arnold?

They don’t call Reece James, Reece or Andrew Roberson, Andrew?

It annoys me.

Its mainly Carragher doing it isn't it? Bugs me too.

Carragher bugs me for a whole host of reasons, not least his pronunciation.
He’s happy to is the correct pronunciation of Mane, for example, but insists on calling de Bruyne ‘de broin’ and Gundogan as it’s spelt not pronounced

Jamie Redknapp also goes with two hard G's on the Gundagan pronunciation. You would think with all of Sky's money and resource that when someone knew joins the PL they could just check the pronunciation

Because Trent is much shorter and easier to say than Alexander-Arnold.

That's also why I still use 'DD', and not 'Loafer'.

yeah, Sangers is easier to spell/type

Sorry lads that’s all bollocks and you know it.

Alexander- Arnold isn’t difficult to say and it’s alliterative so rolls off the toungre

Because by the time he gets Alexander Arnold out of his mouth with that scouse accent, the game would be over

Yes, I think it was more his choice than the media's. Says a lot about the little show pony.
