ArchivesRe: How do you pronounce Jacqueline?
in reply to a message by dreaming2b
Of course Jacqueline CAN be pronounced "jack-qua-lynn." I think that the majority of women in the USA I know with this name do pronounce it with the "kw" sound in the middle. Of course most of the people from England who have commented on that pronunciation to me think it's "as bad as trying to pronounce the 'b' in debt." But as Americans also use the -th- sound in "Anthony", it's just a part of American culture to me.
