How Do You Pronounce Your Name?

Post by **Lani Pockerveil** » Fri Aug 20, 2004 1:12 am

Well, hello everyone. My name is preety simple.

The La in Lani sounds like the lo in love, while the ni at the end sounds like the ni in night.

For my last name the Poc rhymes with rock, the ker rhymes with her and the veil sounds like the veil in a wedding veil.

Together it sounds like this La-ni Poc-ker-veil. Wah Laa /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

I think my last name is pretty simple. It's 'Moon' (MOO-N: you know, that big thing that's sometimes in the night sky) and 'fellow' (FELL-O, rhymes with 'jello' -- and there's always room for jello!).

My first name is Amarth (Ahh-MARTH), which supposedly means 'fate' or 'doom' in Tolkien's (a la 'Lord of the Rings') Sindarin language.

K- K--- make the deep "K" sound!
ling- ling--- like ahh, sing... only replace the "S" with an "L"
