Re: Silke? (ZIL-kuh)
Silke would be pronounced like the textile, or like silky, so no. Zilke looks sufficiently unusual in English for people to ask about the pronunciation, which is good, but then you'd have to explain why it isn't TSIL-kuh. I like Silke, but only as a nn and only in a German context.
