[Facts] Re: Pronunciation
I realize that foreign vowel pronounciations are different, so if someone who's Hispanic or French (or French-Canadian) calls me Correen, I totally understand. It's the people who have been corrected & still insist on pronouncing my name their way who drive me nuts. Also, I was under the impression that the origin of my name was Greek (in which case the final "e" would be pronounced instead of being silent), from the word "Kore" for the free-standing female statues. Anyone else have any other etymological information?
