however you want, i guess. i pronounce my favorite boy's name, sirius,like "SEER-is". everyone else says "SEER-ee-us". it drives me nuts! so i just say it how i want.
PS. i always said "EL", but i've heard different.

you know i wondered about how you pronounce sirius and i was trying to find out the proper way when i ran across your posting. i always pronounced sirius like "sigh-rus" because my friend has a son and that is how she says it and its spelled sirius. when the movie came out i couldn't believe they said it like "seer-ee-us" its sounded so awful to me i still say it my way.
but in response to Elle i say it the same way you do "EL" i think that is the right way to say it but you know you say potAto i say potAAto so ... : )

Like the letter of the alphabet - L. In French it means: she.In English Elle can be used as a short form of Eleanor, Isabel and similar names; but then, so can Ellie.

No, it doesn'tClick on the hyperlink: Tanya."Fairy princess" is absolutely false.And next time, SEARCH for your name by typing it in the Search box on Behind the Name's main page before coming here. Also, post your own thread instead of using someone else's. We always do this to keep the board uncluttered and organised.Miranda
