[Facts] How would you pronounce this?
The name Sven.
I recently asked about the name Seven on here. Someone suggested spelling it Sven instead which I thought was interesting and I like. But would you pronounce Sven the same as Seven? Or would you kinda blend the s and v? I would only use this name for a mn so I guess it's not that big of a deal but I just wanted to see what others think. Thanks.

i know a guy named steven, who goes by sven. He pronounces it one syllable
If I remember corectly, the author Roald Dahl gave one of his daughters the names Olivia Twenty Dahl. He and his wife just liked the sound of 'twenty'; it had no significance beyond that. So, if you go for Seven instead of Sven, there's some kind of precedent.

Sven(blending the s and v) is way good. Seven kind of sounds.... odd i guess. but it's an awesome name.
It fits

I always just, like you said, blend the s and the v. It's a way cool name though, I like it!
You blend the S and the V - pronounce it as if you were saying 'Seven' but skipping the first 'e'. In other words, Sven is pronounced exactly how it looks!
