HelpRe: Yep! n/t
in reply to a message by Anneza
Well, the existence of those movies is an "excuse for Xavier with that pronunciation". That's how Professor X pronounces his surname. I had never heard the name before seeing the first X-Men movie and only found out that the "correct" pronunciation is zay-vee-r when I started posting here.
You should look at the Xavier page on BTN also. ig-ZAY-vee-ər is listed.

I agree. I pronounce it ZAY-vyer.

Zavier itself is also a modern spelling.

I say "ig"
I say ig-zay-vyer. No idea where I got it from though. I wonder where it is said as such and for how long it as been said that way.
