How do you pronounce that??
« on: September 11, 2007, 04:13:39 AM »
Heres a thread i started on the old forum which proved to be fairly popular.  At many meets you um, meet fellow avalonians but some of them have the weirdest names that you just haven't a chance of pronouncing right unless you ask.

So i'm asking, How do you pronounce your name??

Mine, is SISS-EE-FUSS.

You?

See, and now because of this thread I won't go around pronouncing your name "Kay", which is what I thought it was.  :)

Ok Ok First post here, even though I have been hiding in here for ages! ;)
Only reason I'm replying is because I actually looked up how persephone was pronounced and its completely different to what i thought, so for the record Persephone is pronounced PUR-SEF-UH-KNEE

I actally thought it was purse-phonie LOL

I guess I'll join in now that I'm back an all...

Bowdyn - BO-din

hehe having been called BOW-din, as in the respectful gesture of bending forward at one's hips, I can't emphasize enough that it's said like the WEAPON, Bow, not the verb, to bow.

Just coz my bear had to do it, and just for anyone who's too new to have seen the old board:

It's dee-nuh-MORE-ee-uh, aka DEE-nuh.

Call me Dyna and I'm gonna kick you in the shin!
