Re: But how is Joachim pronounced in English?
in reply to a message by Ylva
I think they would pronounce it jo-ah-kim but I pronounce it yo-AH-kim, well similar to that. There's probably not a single Joachim in NZ. If I was to name a son Joachim I guess people would get use to the pronounciation, like how people have gotten used to the "yo" pronounciation of Johanna and Johannes.
