[Opinions] Re: Names you've been mispronouncing this whole time?
In my case it concernesAnais- AN-NA-EES instead of Ann-nice
Thais- TIES instead of TAH-EES
Nike- NEE-keh instead of Naik
Niharika- NEE-HAHR-reeka instead of NEE-ha-reeka

In French, it is pronounced AH-nah-EEZ. I have never heard this pronounced Ann-nice. That would be Annice.
In central america Anais is pronounced more like an-EYE-ees.
Anais is not pronounced Ann-nice, it's ah-nah-ees. And Nike is nee-keh in Greek.
I believe Ariane was listing the correct pronunciations first.
