[Opinions] Re: Cambria
in reply to a message by gigibee
It's ... not bad.
I've always intuitively said Caym- like Cambrian, and not Cam-. I don't know if I like the Cam pronunciation. I think it has sort of a late 90s feeling about it. It reminds me strongly of Cameron, and of Campbell (remember when that was a trend, naming girls Campbell? Talk about a flash in the pan). Just in general, the k-mbr- sound puts me too much in mind of Kimberly, which I dislike a lot. But I don't really mind CAYM-bria.
Reminds me of Cambriel, also - which I learned to say as Cam- and I don't like very much either.
