Help[Opinions] Re: Yvonne
in reply to a message by CherryFrog
How is Y-vonne, pronounced? It wasn't phonetically clear.
I like Yvonne like yuh-vawn, but I also have an aunt that pronounces it ee-vawn.

I only like it pronounced as EE-von
This is the correct French pronounciation of Yvonne. And this is how we pronounce it in Sweden too. Though is is more of a mom's name in Sweden.
If it is pronounced as Yah-von, I think it should be spelt as Yahvonne, I find this pronounciation confusing.
