Re: How to pronounce Lysander?
in reply to a message by V.
I pronounce it lie-san-der just the way it looks. It's a cool name! :)

"That tounge of your's is hinged in the middle sister!"

And, this is how my Shakespeare class pronounces it. I wonder how the majority of other people pronounce it. I just don't like the possible teasing nickname of "lice" that goes along with this pronunciation.
Oh, well I don't really accent the 'lice' part of it, I do it more in two parts lie-sander not like lice-ander! :) I think lie-sander is how most people pronounce it though I'm not at all sure! :)
