I honestly doubt any of you Americans can pronounce my name, but yet. Most of you pronounce it "Sten" "Stine" or "Stih-jin". But yeah, for those of you that know a bit of German, try saying "Stein" which sounds about right.


Your name is easy :D I don't know how to pronounce it the wrong way.

toe-may-tee... not toe-mah-tee or too-matey :>

Did that come out right? ;)


Well, I suppose it works, but it's not how I think of the syllables. =P

Erm, mine is pronounced can-da. You'd be surprised how times people have mistaken it for quanda (definitely more than 20), even though I would've thought it's spelling was rather obvious, especially with the capital Q.


"can-da", who'd have thunk it? I always just sort of said "Quanda... Cahnda... however you say it..."

You americans are weird.

When you have an "x" at the start of a word, it takes up a "z" sound.

Xerai thus isnt "ex-erai" its "zerai". Xylophone isnt "ex-eyelophone" is it.

Dr Xargoyle is pronounced "Dr Zargoyle"

Xil is pronounced "Zil"

You don't say the first letter of the word in its alphabetical version. You don't say "dee-on't" or "double-u-ant" do you.

And oh how it makes me laugh how americans say "EYE-RACK."

"Hi, me and the boys are going to eye-rack next week"
"Oh, really, i hear the weather in eye-rack is lovely"
"oh indeed, the eye-rack-ees enjoy very hot summers"
"but i hear the eye-rack has very little precipitation, is this true?"
"yes it is, eye-rack has very little rain"
"thanks, enjoy your trip to eye-rack"


Xerai is British, and Xil is Canadian.
I'm American, and I don't say eye-rack. I say "Ih-rock". I also pronounce "xerai" as "zerai", and "xil" as "zil", thus their explanations on how people <i>think</i> it's pronounced.

Ya know... I mispronounce my own first name.

It's "Chasity" and it's meant to be prounounced just that way, with a short 'S' sound and a hard 'T' sound.
That's how my parents and everyone else pronounces it.
But I say it "Chassidy" with a longer 'S' sound and a 'D' sound instead of a 'T'.
Which has led people in the past to believe my name was spelled that way.

My username is pronounce strech-ee, like strechy. Not stree-cheye or anything like that.

How I pronouce people's usernames:
Albadror - albadoor. Almost right!
ZH! - zahuh (spit at the end). :lol: Not really, but it's fun to do!
vkceankraz - Vick-can-rest.. I don't know how I got that..
Tsumego - toom-say-go.. Again, no clue how I got that.
Qanda - quanda, like wanda except with a q in front.
SpiraLethe - spy-ra-lee.. :o
Caesara - Say-zeer-uh
ahoteinrun - a-hote-in-run. It took me forever to get yours, but I finally did!
tymaporer - Tam-poor-rah.. I see weird things.
xerai - exe-zeer-uh

Wow, great topic!

Well, I guess I'm just A-tha-ra. A as in Alfa, tha as in tar, only with an H inbetween and ra as in... erm... ra?

Stijn is an easy name to pronounce. Don't be silly! :)

Edit: I'm still curious as to how o_O wants his name to be pronounced... Lol!
