....I'm not even going there.
I've done it as what you'd say to the KID, as opposed to the adult, so it might sound a bit weird lol

This is my son Telal:
You say: That's an interesting name you have, Telal.
You think: That name must belong to some character on 'Star Trek'.
This is my daughter Loshonda:
You say: What a lovely name, its nice to meet you Loshonda.
You think: Parents can be so cruel.
This is my son Jhye:
You say: It rhymes with eye? Very interesting.
You think: This is why nurses should wait until the drugs wear off before asking parents to name their child.
This is my daugher Shaylyssa:
You say: Nice to meet you, Shay.
You think: Here's hoping she doesn't have a speech impediment.
This is my son Zarek:
you say: What a nice strong name.
You think: Derek with a 'Z', very creative.
This is my daughter Jasiarna:
You say: What a pretty name, do you prefer a nickname, Jasiarna?
You think: Jasi-what?
This is my son Jaysic:
You say: Nice to meet you, Jay.
You think: Are his parents literate?
This is my daughter Akeisha:
You say: What a pretty name, you don't hear it very often.
You think: And thank god you don't, how horrible.
This is my son Jayvinn:
You say:
You think: I would have stuck to Jayden.
This is my daughter Boeshay:
You say: What a pretty little girl, with a name to match.
You think: Beau and Shay are both horrible names, why combine them? Let's hope she doesn't have siblings.
This is my son Zayleb:
You say: What a lovely name. Do you call him 'Zay'
You think: A creative spin on Caleb, and yet I still don't like it.
You say: That's an interesting name you have, Telal.

This is my son Telal:
You say: Hello Telal (I'd have to repeat it to check with you that I was saying it right).
You think: Ethnic? I think I like it though~! Sounds strong & gentle.
This is my daughter Loshonda:
You say: That's nice.
You think: Okay.. I thought -shonda names went out in the seventies. I hope she doesn't get called Lo for short.
This is my son Jhye:
You say: Jhye. How neat.
You think: Great unique name, simple & appealing.
This is my daugher Shaylyssa:
You say: Ah, that's pretty.
You think: Actually it is kind of pretty. Too bad about the two Y's.. I don't like Y, and I wouldn't like to have to sign the name.
This is my son Zarek:
you say: Neat name.
You think: Neat name. Sounds ethnic or eccentric, but neat.
This is my daughter Jasiarna:
You say: How do you spell that?
You think: snarly at first, but interesting.
This is my son Jaysic:
You say: How do you spell that?
You think: sounds like an adjective; I'll call him Jay. I'd have spelled it Jaisek, Jaizik, Jaisac, Jaycek.
This is my daughter Akeisha:
You say: Pretty.
You think: yawn... pretty enough.
This is my son Jayvinn:
You say: Neat.
You think: Neat. Bit weird with the two n's though. Why not Jayvin?
This is my daughter Boeshay:
You say: Hm. That's a unique name.
You think: Boeshay? Oh.. Bo plus Shay. Bodacious. Not my style, but at least it's different.
This is my son Zayleb:
You say: zzzzzZayleb? ah.
You think: No. No. Oh.. I'll call him Zayl. That'd be cool.

This is my son Telal:
You say: Hi Telal. Where does your name come from?
You think: I hope it's a legit foreign name.
This is my daughter Loshonda:
You say: Do you use a nickname?
You think: Please use a nickname. Please.
This is my son Jhye:
You say: I bet you always have to spell your name!
You think: Not terrible.
This is my daugher Shaylyssa:
You say: Can I call you Shay?
You think: I can't say that!
This is my son Zarek:
you say: Nice name! Is it Polish?
You think: Or is it made up?
This is my daughter Jasiarna:
You say: Pretty name!
You think: If you pronounce it like an English or Australian person. Never let the poor kid near a place where people pronounce their R's.
This is my son Jaysic:
You say: Hi Jay!
You think: Sick. Nice!
This is my daughter Akeisha:
You say: That's unique.
You think: Or rather, EuNeigh'Que. Lets add a superfluous A. Fantastic!

You think: "It sounds like she sneezed when she named the kid."
This is my son Zarek:
you say: "Hey, Zarek. That's a cool name, isn't it?"
You think: "Sounds like something from Star Wars."
This is my daughter Jasiarna:

This is my son Jaysic:
You say: "That's a different name. I like it."
You think: "Sic him, Jay, sic him!"
This is my daughter Akeisha:
You say: "Hey, that's a pretty name for a little girl."

This is my son Jayvinn:
You say: "Jayvinn is a great name!"
You think: "Don't lie."
This is my daughter Boeshay:
You say: "Raelly? I haven't heard that name before."
You think: "And I wish I never did."
This is my son Zayleb:
You say: "Zayleb is a unique name."
You think: "'Unique' is definitely putting it politely."
This is my son Telal:

This is my son Telal:
You say: That's an interesting name.
You think: That's an interesting name. I wonder if it's legitimate. And I just read the pronunciation below. I've been calling him Teh-lahl in my head this whole time.
This is my daughter Loshonda:
You say: I bet you don't know another Loshonda.
You think: Oh puke. Poor child. People are going to have the worst impression of her before they even meet her.
This is my son Jhye:
You say: That's an interesting name.
You think: Yuck. I can't help but think of the guy from Queer Eye, who I find hideous.
This is my daugher Shaylyssa:
You say: Hi Shaylyssa.
You think: Gag me. As if Shay isn't bad enough, she had to stick the ugly yssa on the end. Poor child. I hope she grows up to be at least a moderately attractive teen.
This is my son Zarek:
you say: That's an interesting name.
You think: Oh you're so cool naming your child a name that starts with a Z. I'm so impressed. Not.
This is my daughter Jasiarna:
You say: I've never heard that name before.
You think: Of course I've never heard that name before. It's hideous and made up. If it were the least bit attractive, don't you think someone would have created it long ago?
This is my son Jaysic:
You say: That's a different name.
You think: Sic[k] is right. What a horrible name.
This is my daughter Akeisha:
You say: Is she named after someone?
You think: Akeisha, LaKeisha,Makeisha. Gag. What else will they tag onto Keisha to make a different name. As if Keisha isn't bad enough alone.
This is my son Jayvinn:
You say: What nationality is that name?
You think: Poor child. He'll always be assumed lower class.
This is my daughter Boeshay:
You say: I've not heard that before.
You think: WTH? That poor girl. Please God, let her have a middle name that she can use.
This is my son Zayleb:
You say: Interesting name.
You think: Good Lord. What will it be next Zoshua? Zicholas? Zichael? How utterly and completely ridiculous. What the hell is so captivating about the letter Z? It's NOT impressive.
You say: That's an interesting name.

This is my son Telal: (how do you prn this one? Is it Te-lal or Tel-al?)
You say: Hey Telal.
You think: Wow, never heard that one before. Wonder if it's foreign?
This is my daughter Loshonda:
You say: Hi Loshonda. I'm Ju-lisha, but most people call me Lisha. You got a nicknane?
You think: I hope she has because i can't keep saying that. To many o's. I'll say Leshonda or Lashonda by mistake.
This is my son Jhye:
You say: Hiya Jhye.
You think: Thank God she said it first. I would've prn it like Kai. But apart from that, i like.
This is my daugher Shaylyssa:
You say: Hi Shaylyssa. You got a nickname?
You think: Y and A overload. Ghetto with a capital G.
This is my son Zarek: (Prn like Tariq (Za-rek) or Tyrik (Za-reek)
you say: Hey Zarek. Cool name.
You think: Hmm, prefer Tariq / Tyrik, but not a bad variation. I've seen worse.
This is my daughter Jasiarna:
You say: Hi, mind if I call you Jas, or do you prefer Siarna?
You think: Poor kid. Way to long. Ghetto.
This is my son Jaysic:
You say: How you doing Jaysic?
You think: He has the word Sic in his name. Jayzic would be a little better imo. But either way i think of the rapper Jay-Z.
This is my daughter Akeisha:
You say: Hey Akeisha. You mind being called Keisha?
You think: Either call her Alisha or Lakeisha, not both.
This is my son Jayvinn:
You say: Hi Jayvinn.
You think: I'm gonna call him Javin, i have no idea why, but i know i will.
This is my daughter Boeshay:
You say: Ahhh, cute name.
You think: She's gonna hate that by the time she's 13. I would never have come up with that name in a million years. Sounds like a perfume or deodorant.
This is my son Zayleb:
You say: Zayleb...wow. Nice to meet you.
You think: Zayleb? Did i hear that right? Zay-leb? My God what was she thinking. Zay? Zayzay? Leb? Lebby? I can't even think of a good nn.
You say: Hey Telal.
You think: Wow, never heard that one before. Wonder if it's foreign?
This is my daughter Loshonda:
You say: Hi Loshonda. I'm Ju-lisha, but most people call me Lisha. You got a nicknane?

Telal is pronounced Te-lau
Jhye is the same as Kai :) Rhymes with eye
Zarek is prounounce Zah-rick
I like your variation on Jaysic, Jayzic. With the z do you think people would have more trouble pronouncing it? I pronounce it Jase-ick

Zarek is prounounce Zah-rick

Well I've been pronouncing most of those wrong then :).
Telal I said as Teh-lahl.
Jhye i said right to start with then decided to say it like Jay (don't ask me why)!
Zarek i think i got right but i wasn't sure.
Jaysic i said Jay-sick (which to me sounds horrible)
It's Telal and Jaysic that i have a problem with. To me the spellings don't match the sounds you want to make. I would nver have though of pronouncing Telal as Te-lau because it has an l on the end. If this name in foreign and that is how they say, then that's fine, you just might have to explain it to people like moi sometimes. But if it's a name you created yourself, you may want to consider changing the spelling.
Same with Jaysic. I saw the name Jay in it, so pronouned it seperatly, giving me Jay-sic. But then i have no idea how else you could spell it to get the sound you want. As i said it might just be me because i do have trouble with names that use your style (e.g Kanye being prn Karn-yay), i just don't understand it. Am i missing something?

Telal is from Willie Telau the football player. He was my ex's(my kids dad) fave footy player and he is Leboneese, My ex was also. I always loved Tyler Jackson but when I got pregnant we decided on Telal Jackson because it sounded more Leb lol. I have never been good at putting sounds done on paper or message boards lol but I think Teh-lahl might be a better way to have it written, it rhymes with how, cow etc only with an L. Normally I just say its Telal as in Willie Telau and people(from Australia) know what I mean lol. It's very rare I have to pronounce it on boards, maybe people are just to scared to ask lol. I don't think he would have any problems at school with it but I'll never know :(
This is my son Telal:
You say: Nice to meet you, Telal.
You think: Well, it sounds like a name. Maybe it is one.
This is my daughter Loshonda:
You say: What an interesting name!
You think: And it would even be stomachable if it wasn't full of O's. Lashanda wouldn't be half as ugly looking.
This is my son Jhye:
You say: What a neat name.
You think: The name is, at least. The spelling makes me want to retch. What's wrong with Jay or Jai? They were good enough for Gatsby and Roderiguez.
This is my daugher Shaylyssa:
You say: Nice to meet you. Do you have a nickname?
You think: Please let her have a nickname. I don't want to say that monstrosity of a name ever again.
This is my son Zarek:
you say: What an interesting name. Where did you find it?
You think: It's kind of cool...Reminds me of Jareth, but without the goblins.
This is my daughter Jasiarna:
You say: Nice name. Do you have a nickname?
You think: That's got to be one of the ugliest sounds I've ever heard. Maybe she's called Jassie.
This is my son Jaysic:
You say: Nice to meet you.
You think: Wow, and I thought Jason was hideous.
This is my daughter Akeisha:
You say: What a pretty name.
You think: It's like "What if Acacia and Lakeisha met?", but it's not too bad.
This is my son Jayvinn:
You say: Interesting name. Does he have a nickname?
You think: He could be a Jay. Or a Vinnie. Or something that doesn't look as embarrassingly contrived.
This is my daughter Boeshay:
You say: What a pretty baby.
You think: I think this is the worst name I've heard as of late. What a hideous sound, and the spelling leaves everything to be desired.
This is my son Zayleb:
You say: Interesting name.
You think: Well, it's marginally better than Caleb.

You say: Nice to meet you, Telal.
You think: Well, it sounds like a name. Maybe it is one.
This is my daughter Loshonda:
You say: What an interesting name!
You think: And it would even be stomachable if it wasn't full of O's. Lashanda wouldn't be half as ugly looking.
This is my son Jhye:
You say: What a neat name.
You think: The name is, at least. The spelling makes me want to retch. What's wrong with Jay or Jai? They were good enough for Gatsby and Roderiguez.
