Advice, please, on US pronunciation! Baizyl Lawson Jean makes me wonder ... where I live, and I think in British English generally, Basil starts with a Baz. Short a sound, as in flat or apple. But Baizyl (poor child, he's got a lifetime of explaining ahead of him) seems to suggest that in the Western hemisphere it starts with an ay, as in bay or Mabel. Am I right? And if I'm wrong, what could the parents have been thinking of?
