How Do You Pronounce Your Name?

Post by **Isabella Astiar** » Tue Jul 19, 2005 4:11 am

Wow. Some peoples' names are complicated. Mine, however, is quite simple.

Is: like the word 'is'
a: like the dentists' office "ah"
bel: I hate the hard "bell" sound, so I'd go with "bael"
la: just like when you're singing "la"

As: "ahs"
ti: "tee"
ar: "ar"

So, put together is: Is-ah-bael-la Ahs-tee-ar

i'm almost certain that pronouncing my name is effortless to the general public. /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> but my uncertainty is slaughtering my reassurance...

misaki fujiwara

mi - sa - ki ( mee - sah - kee )

fu - ji - wa - ra ( foo - gee - wah - rah )

well that is my name everybody. /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> [and] i hope to befriend/ acquaint myself with all of you. /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />

Well... That's not difficult, Just rhyme LIANA with DIANA, and pronounce LIGGINS with the stress on the first syllable. Anyhow, I won't get offended no matter how you pronounce my name, 'cause I'm not pretty sure myself what's the English way of pronouncing it /biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

If you really wish to learn my name... here it goes:

Akuma - Like akuna ma-ta-ta in the lion king, exept with an M.

Denrei - Just a little harder, but still easy. Den as in a den, and then rai said like a ray from the run

Lill (lil)

lil-E-an /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />

dull-see-uh

My first name is easy. However, my second name is German, so it's slightly more difficult:

Payje Zow-ber-eye

Zau - rhymes with ow!
Ber - pretty obvious
Ei - the same as eye

Ceri:

Ce => as sense

Mc => as Mac
Hawk => as itself: hawk, the "bird" /wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

So would be: se-ri-mac-hawk (if this is how we suppose have to do it)....
