Re: alternative prn. of Lachlan??
in reply to a message by Britney
I didn't see Elinor's post. But before I was informed as to how the name is pronounced in Australia, my guess was that it was "LACK-lan", with the first syllable pronounced to rhyme with Jack. I think that would be the guess of a lot of people who were unfamiliar with the name. Of course a few might even opt for "LATCH-lan" when they first saw it.
