Re: Picking a Pronunciation
in reply to a message by RoxStar
We took that into consideration when naming our children, giving them names that work acceptably in both French and English.
So no names ending in "th".Even French speakers who have excellent English find that hard/impossible.
I have a friend named Ruth-her English-speaking father insisted on that, in spite of her French-speaking mother's objections. So, a life-time of "Root"!
