Re: Yo! Adrian!

I'm willing to bet the Adrian you met has had Yo! Adrian! used on her many, many times.
Adrienne is pronounced (in the US, anyway, the two I've known) Ay-dree-ENN.
We don't need to set the sky on fire. A little glow will do just fine.

The two Adriennes I've known, also US are Adrian pen. I far prefer ay-dree-ENN.
Yes, the 2-3 I've met pronounced it like Adrian as well.
Same here. I've never known an Adrienne who pronounced it with the accent on the last syllable. I honestly can't see too many Americans making the effort to do that.

Makes sense, although the last-syllable emphasis prn. sounds very similar (almost exactly the same to me). I kind of prefer it pronounced like Adrian.
