Hello! It's me!
[sub]Just in case you hadn't noticed.[/sub]

So, today, or was it yesterday...
At some time in the past, I started wondering how people said my name.
I say it in a Spanish accent, a bit like this. Except in a manlier voice.
How do you guys say my name? Also, can anybody think of a way to make it clear how it should be said? With accents and the like or something...

Also, in case you'd rather not talk about me, do you think people mispronounce your name or username?

my actual name is Brooke
probably the most english name ever!
anyone whose first language is not English always says it wrong.
When people hear me say my last name they always have to become retarded and say SANDWICH?? (it is a two letter difference but it has not been funny since i was four.)


also the way google translator is the same way i would of said it but without the sound of a robot.

Jed-ah-m-eh-th-iss is how I would have said it.

For my own, I would pronounce it Neh-Ka-Toor, but I don't mind when people pronounce it like "Nectar" as that's a lot easier to say.

Jedd-ahm-ethh-izz is how I read your name phonetically.

I've never heard anyone mispronounce Steven.

Jeh-duh-meh-this

At least, that's how I say it.

And I don't know how anyone could mispronounce mine.

Unless you're one of those people who can't seem to say my name right.

For some reason, no one over the age of 70 can say it correctly. They all say "Jole-yun"

It's Julian, damn it! "Jew-lee-an"

This.

But is your name pronounced Ah-Bee or Aye-Bee? Hmm?

Uhm... Think an abbreviation of 'Abigail.' So yeah, probably 'Ah-bee'

People mispronounce my name all the time.

My full name is Thaius Tydane. The last name is usually okay, but people really screw up the first one. Many people think it's some sort of reference to Thailand, so it's pronounced like "Tie-us." Other people think it's pronounced "Thigh-us." In actually, it's pronounced like "Thay-us." But usually people don't care about that when they're yelling my name after I kill them in Halo. :/

OT: Jeh-dah-me-this. That's how I'd say it at a glance.

Ah see when I think Ah-Bee I think Abby is the spelling. Also, depending on where you live Z is pronounced Zee or Zed. There is really more to pronouncing your name than you think ;D
