[Opinions] Re: Solveig
in reply to a message by Felie
For a long time (pre-internet research and nobody around to correct me) I pronounced it sole-veeg. Now I know its true pronunciation, here's my verdict: it is too much like Sylvie, which I don't like - I prefer SylviaAs a pronunciation, I prefer sole-veeg. It is more unique and sounds like no other name I know.

My friend's mother was Solveig. She pronounced it with a G. I saw her tattoo and I commented on Solveig, pronouncing it with the Y and not the G. She was taken aback, she's never heard that.
