Re: Lieselotte
in reply to a message by Jacqueline
I pronounce Lieselotte as "Lee-seh-LOTT" (three syllables). Silent E just like Charlotte. Lieselotte is short for Elisabeth Charlotte. Lieselotte (or Liselott) is used in Sweden too but not Hannelore.

You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams."
