Comments (Pronunciation Only)

I went to school with a Kari she was in my class we were best friends up until junior high. She pronounced it as Carrie I had yet to meet another Kari until well after I graduated. A classmate of my younger sister's name was Kari who pronounced it as Car ee.
Kari is my name. I pronounce it Car-ee. I get called Carrie all the time. I hate the name Carrie Kari is a unique name and I love it.
In Arabic Qari قَارِئ‎ (pronounced the same way) means "reader". Muslims often use this to describe someone who recites the Quran (their holy book).
It's pronounced cah-ri, or kah-ri. I'm from Sweden but it's the same pronunciation in Norway.
I have always had it pronounced Car-ee or like someone else said, it rhymes with sorry! It is SO frustrating to seldom have anyone know how to pronounce it when you first meet, but even more frustrating when people don't even try!
