ArchivesPronunciation of Andromeda
As you may have noticed, my name is Andromeda. I noticed that in the database the pronunciation is written 'an-DRAW-me-da'. This may be a little bit nit-picking, and I'm guessing that this is an American site, but I'm British and over here it's said quite differently. Personally, I really dislike that pronunciation and prefer 'and-ROM-eh-da'. I hope this is even the littlest bit helpful.
Also, I apologise for posting a comment about the background of the name which I later realised was already there.

Pronounciation of names do change around the world. There are quite a few names on here that have different pronounciation that what I say simply because of different accents.
I would pronounce it an-DROM-eh-dah. So different again. On this site O often becomes some kind of A or AH or something. For example Jocelyn. JOSS-eh-lin vs the JAHS-eh-lin on this site.
If you want to poll people for the pronounciation they believe it is go to the homepage (www.behindthename.com) and click on interactive polls on the left-hand side.
