Re: Corinna
in reply to a message by Ismene
I really like Corinna and used to be such a stickler for the long e pronunciation because that was closer to the original pronunciation, but then I figured since I didn't care about pronouncing similar-sounding names such as Callista, Melissa, Elissa, etc., with the long e sound, then why should Corinna be any different? I think the IN pronunciation is more user friendly and either Corinna or Korinna should get you there if that's what you prefer as well. OTOH, Corina or Korina lean more towards the long e pronunciation.
