HelpRe: How do YOU pronounce Graham?
in reply to a message by BetsyLou
I pronunce Graham as "GRAM", like graham cracker and the measurement gram. Graeme has always looked like "GRAYME" to me, though, so I instinctively pronunce it as such.
I like Graham quite a bit, since I think of Graham Nash, a fantastic musician. I probably wouldn't use it myself, though. Of your combos, I like Graham Walter. Other Graham combos I like include Graham Luca, Graham Ignatius, Graham Vicente, Graham Lewis, and Graham Raining.

No matter when or where you've seen
All the knives seem to lacerate your brain
I've had my share, I'll help you with the pain
You're not alone

How do the English get "Wooster" out of "Worcester"? :)
This seems to be one of the few instances where it is Americans rather than the British that do use a shortened pronunciation of an ancient place name or surname.

Maybe some Americans. I'm American and say it: Gray-um.
