Your comment made me look at the pronunciation BtN gives to Hephzibah. It's "HEF-zi-bah?" I always thought it was "HEP-zi-bah." Is that how you were saying it too?
"HEF-zi-bah" gives me pause. Could heifer jokes be far behind our little my-delight-is-in-her? Nn Effie is cute, but there are other formal names I like much more.
Calling Cleveland Kent Evans! Calling Cleveland Kent Evans! How does the girl from the radio program that you met pronounce it? (This has thrown me into a tizzy. Or should I say a fizzy?)

I always thought it was HEP-zi-bah too
Until this post and I looked it up, I had no idea it was HEF-zi-bah 0.o

Nah, I didn't even get to be "almost correct". I've been pronouncing it hef-ZIE-bə. I think that pronunciation makes it sound much better, to be honest. LOL. :)
