Cool name Tadashi Miura! It's sounds even better when I can pronounce it right!
My name is pronounced (quite obviously) like:
Ah - a short 'a'asound as in the word 'add' and
Dee - as in the words 'see' and 'be'
Ah-dee
Addy is short for Adelina which would be pronounced Ah-dell-ee-nah
Cah - like at the beginning of 'cat' and, though I hate having to write this...
Sick - it sounds exactly like the word sick...great. /dry.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="<_<" border="0" alt="dry.gif" />
Cah-sick
Ah-dee Cah-sick

SHY as in "shy"...rhymes with "hi" and "bye"
ANN as in "an"...rhymes with "fan" and "can". lmao /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />
STEPHENSON as in "stevenson"
Well, it's pretty easy to say, just hard to spell, lmao! /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> I don't really like it anymore, because I based my last name off this guy I used to like, and he turned out to be a big jerk. But I just remind myself that it's just a character and just to be thankful it isn't my REAL name.

I was going to be called Kyrrieya Mayson (Ki-ree-ah May-son), but then I decided not to, so I changed it to Indigo-Ginevra Liardin.
I think you know how to pronounce 'Indigo', and possibly Ginevra (Gin-ev-rah), and Liardin is completely made up - Lee-ar-din

Mine is quite easy...
Aeryn
Exactly like the name 'Erin'. I pronounce it AIR-rin, but I do know that it's pronounced differently by others - e.g. I've heard it pronounced like the name 'Aaron' for some reason...
Brown
Exactly like the colour.

Hm, well, compared to many, my name should be fairly easy.
Mor-GAH-nuh...yes, I think that's the only thing I'm picky about. Not Mor-GANN-uh.
Eh, I'm not too good at making them sound like words. Sorry 'bout that...
Anyway, "Sullivan" is easy enough, I think. Suh-liv-uhn.
Mor-gah-nuh Suh-liv-uhn. Yay! =)

My name is latin for 'Friend Dreamer', so i am not sure how it is pronounced, but this is always how I pronounce it (please someone correct me if I am wrong):
A (ah)
mi (mee like the word me)
cuh (like the cuh sound in come)
A-mih-cuh
Som (rhymes with from)
nee (like knee)
um (rhymes with rum)
Som-nee-um
And that's the way to do it! /biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

As much as some people would like my given name to rhyme with 'migraine' it does not. /rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />
Ig (short 'i' as in 'igloo')-raine (said just like 'rain')
Cir (said like 'sear')-ith (short 'i' again)
