Re: Elvira
in reply to a message by overtheclouds
I know one here in Finland, about 5 years old. they pronounce it EL-veer-ah here, with the emphasis on the first syllable. Not keen on it, but it was nice to see it as it's very unusual.
There was a town called Elvira (prn el-vie-rah) near where i grew up in the midwest, but the name has always reminded me of the shlock horror Princess of the Dark.
