SHAY-enn, the correct way imo...
in reply to a message by Lily8
If you just saw the name Chey, would you pronounce it Shy or Shay? I would pronounce it Shay. And If you saw Enne, would you say Anne or Enn? I would say Enne.I don't understand how one would get an ANNE sound at the end, it's an e not an a- enn not ann.

Why should it be pronounced SHAY-enn? So not obvious, somehow... (m)  ·  LoQuiero  ·  3/7/2009, 5:52 PM
