Telal is pronounced Te-lau
Jhye is the same as Kai :) Rhymes with eye
Zarek is prounounce Zah-rick
I like your variation on Jaysic, Jayzic. With the z do you think people would have more trouble pronouncing it? I pronounce it Jase-ick

Well I've been pronouncing most of those wrong then :).
Telal I said as Teh-lahl.
Jhye i said right to start with then decided to say it like Jay (don't ask me why)!
Zarek i think i got right but i wasn't sure.
Jaysic i said Jay-sick (which to me sounds horrible)
It's Telal and Jaysic that i have a problem with. To me the spellings don't match the sounds you want to make. I would nver have though of pronouncing Telal as Te-lau because it has an l on the end. If this name in foreign and that is how they say, then that's fine, you just might have to explain it to people like moi sometimes. But if it's a name you created yourself, you may want to consider changing the spelling.
Same with Jaysic. I saw the name Jay in it, so pronouned it seperatly, giving me Jay-sic. But then i have no idea how else you could spell it to get the sound you want. As i said it might just be me because i do have trouble with names that use your style (e.g Kanye being prn Karn-yay), i just don't understand it. Am i missing something?

Telal is from Willie Telau the football player. He was my ex's(my kids dad) fave footy player and he is Leboneese, My ex was also. I always loved Tyler Jackson but when I got pregnant we decided on Telal Jackson because it sounded more Leb lol. I have never been good at putting sounds done on paper or message boards lol but I think Teh-lahl might be a better way to have it written, it rhymes with how, cow etc only with an L. Normally I just say its Telal as in Willie Telau and people(from Australia) know what I mean lol. It's very rare I have to pronounce it on boards, maybe people are just to scared to ask lol. I don't think he would have any problems at school with it but I'll never know :(
