ArchivesPronounciation of Tarquin?
How is this name pronounced? The name listing says it is pronounced TAHR-kwin but then in one of the comments someone mentions this:
"If it is of Etruscan origin it's not pronounced tar-kwin - it'd be tar-keen or tar-koo-een because in Etruscan, the 'u' makes an 'oo' sound and the 'i' is pronounced like the 'i' in 'machine'. :)"
Does anyone know which pronounciation is more correct? Thx.
