Re: Andrea
in reply to a message by Perrine
I do, yeah. I have a cousin named this. Her name is said as 'Ann-dray-uh'
I also knew 2 or 3 other women with this name, different pronunciations.
On-dree-uh & An-dree-uh. I believe. Something to that effect

Yeah the pronunciation is ambiguous. I have an aunt Andrea, pronounced AHN-dree-uh, and she is constantly complaining about it being mispronounced.
ANN-dree-uh is the most common and straightforward pronunciation in American English, I think.
