HelpRe: Names you have mispronounced or misunderstood
in reply to a message by Caprice
I first thought Thalia was pronounce like it rhymed with Dahlia and started with a "th" noise. I still like that, but I like its actual pronunciation too.
I remember when I thought Sorcha was pronounced SORE-sha (It reminded me of Sacha when I looked at it). I like of like that.
I like Barclay pronounced axactly how it looks "bar-clay," but not like "Barkley."
I like Sian pronounced like "Sharn" as if it almost rhymes with "yarn" or "barn" (This is how it's said on Forvo and that's how I say it). A lot of people here say that they say it differently. Still haven't decided what the truth is or if it really is a dialect thing.
I once pronounce Gillespie as JIL-ess-pee. I like GIH-less-pee better.
Ivaylo / Ivayla was once EYE-vay-lo/a to me.
I used to pronounce Zephyr as ZEE-fer and I was sad when it was said ZEH-fer, but actually, I like that more now.
