Help[Opinions] Re: US Election Day BA
in reply to a message by Serafina Starstrider
The more elegant, agreeable spelling would have been, in my opinion, Cruze Lee S.
Quite passable, my enthusiasm remains limited.

Surely Croix isn't pronounced like Cruze? Is it?

I think it is pronounced KROY. People in the US generally say "Saint Croy" for places St Croix.
My intuition on seeing the name Croix by itself is to say KWAH.
I think Croix "KROY" sounds kind of silly. But not totally out of nowhere.
Cruze (pronounced like cruise) is apparently an Americanization of Spanish Cruz, so it's sort of a form of the same name.... Maybe that is what she means?
