[Facts] Hippolyte
Hi, I was wondering how the name Hippolyte is pronounced. I think that it is used a lot in France but I knew that it is derived from a Greek or Roman name. I looked it up all over the internet and I can't figure it out. Please help.

Thanks for the responses. It's cleared up a lot for me!
In France, it is ee-poh-leet. But it is almost unheard of today...
