Should I give myself a new, friendlier name in my new job?

My given name doesn't sound good in English pronunciation. It also sounds a bit masculine (I'm a girl). Think about the pronunciation of the most famous Korean names you know and you'd get what I mean.

I am starting a new job soon. Do you think it would be a good idea to give myself a friendlier easy-to-pronounce name at work? Would it make me look pretentious?
