[Opinions] Re: Yvonne and Gwen
in reply to a message by Ismene
It's ee-VON to me, or maybe ih-VON but definitely not yih-VON. Yih-VON sounds as tackily incorrect to me as calling an Yves "YIVZ," or a Renee "Reh-NEE," or Antoine "An-TOYN." I would just say ih-VON if someone introduced herself to me as yih-VON, and see if I got corrected again, or if I could get away with it.
I like Gwen, and I think it's alright as a full name by itself. I like Gwendolen enough to use that as a full name though. I like Gwyneth more than Gwenith, but I think Gwen can be short for Gwyneth too.
