Re: How do you pronounce ....
in reply to a message by V.
If you want the "official" pronunciations, you should probably ask on the Facts board. But I think it's GHIZ-layn -- at least, where I live I wouldn't be afraid to blurt that out. Could also be GHIS-layn. Anything else would be a foreign pronunciation (although another prn might be more 'correct').Only an idiot would think you were an idiot for mispronouncing a name like this one.

Mirfak's second example is the right one, GHIS-layn. a fairly usual name in my (French-speaking) area. The"n" at the end is almost dropped, it's spoken very quietly.
A somewhat difficult name, but a pretty one.
