Thanks, what about Contribute information?
In the information about these names. I know now the Greek and the English pronounciations, but others looking up this name should do so to.

Though it certainly is true that the original Greek pronunciation would have "ee" in the first syllable, the traditional pronunciation of both of these names in English-speaking countries uses "eye" as the sound of the first syllable.
