Re: Chehalis
in reply to a message by Faelivrin
I'm from Washington state, and my mom lived in Chehalis, so for me it sounds really weird as a name. Are you pronounce the beginning like the word she, like shee? Because it's the beginning is more like shuh.
That aside, I suppose I could maybe see it as a name, and I can see the appeal to someone who isn't used to hearing it as a name of a city. It sounds more feminine to me.

Oh, I pronounce it shuh. Sorry if that was confusing; shuh- and she- sound similar to me when I read them, I should've put sheh- to clarify.
