HelpRe: Name pronunciation?
in reply to a message by Egyptian Princess
Honestly, I've said JAH-van for years and just realized that is wrong. My sister even looked at it and said, "JAH-van?"
I think it's because it looks like the word "java."
My mom thought it was pronounced "JAV-an."
None of us came up with JAY-ven.
I knew the origin and meaning, but not the correct pronunciation.
Not trying to let you down, just letting you know it's not as easy as you may be hoping.
