Help[Opinions] A name pronunciation
Searching this site I came across the name Dragomir . I like the meaning , "precious and peaceful" from the Slavic element dorogo meaning "precious" combined with mir "peace". I was wondering what is the correct pronunciation of the name.

Mmmm, it wasn't clear. The "a" not like "fade", but "car" (no "ay" or "ee" sound). Shorter than in "car" though, and with no "r" sound.
The "o" no like doe, or "ow". Just "o", with nothing after.
The "i" like the letter T (not prn. "uh", "eye"...) but shorter.
It's so difficult to explain when English isn't your first language lol

The way I am thinking is DRAHG-o-meer.
Other ways I was thinking were Dray-go-MEER, or Drag-O-meer.
Am I close to what you were saying?

I think drahg-o-meer is the best. The "dray" wouldn't be Slavic.

I think she means DRAH-goh-mirr. The last syllable is probably a hard I. So, as far as I know, it doesn't sound like Boromir from Lord of the Rings :P
