Joachim's pronunciation
in reply to a message by Array
I pronounce this name wa-KEEM. I live in the USA, and I NEVER have heard it pronounced JO-ah-kim. LOL. It just sounds silly to me.
However... my sister just got married at St. Joachim Church, and they call it JO-kim or JO-ah-kim. So okay, I've heard it pronounced that way once, and it was three weeks ago. LOL. I like the wa-KEEM pron. better, but I just think that's because that's what I'm used to.
So... Johann would be my favorite out of the two.
