Ione

Comments (Pronunciation Only)

My middle name is Ione but it is the name I've always gone by (my first name is a Japanese name). I also pronounce it "I own". I've always joked that Ione Skye pronounces her name wrong ha, ha. I don't think it really matters how you pronounce it though. Go with what you like :-). The name was my paternal Grandmother's middle name (she also went by Ione), and it is my youngest daughters middle name. I have always liked my name and appreciate having an unusual name, although the first day of school was always a little difficult for my teachers, lol. I agree with "timryechris" in that, I've never actually met another Ione. I went to church years ago with an Iona but that's as close as I've gotten. I'm afraid if I ever meet another Ione I may become way too excited LOL!

My middle name is Ione and my family has always pronounced it like Iown. As in 'I own' that car.
