  • SarathaiSarathai
    I usually pronounce mine as Sa-rath-eye (where "rath" is pronounced like "wrath").
    - (Eleusis): Ellodin says, "The Fissure of Echoes is Sarathai's happy place."
    - With sharp, crackling tones, Kyrra tells you, "The ladies must love you immensely."
    - (Eleusian Ranger Techs): Savira says, "Most of the hard stuff seem to have this built in code like: If adventurer_hitting_me = "Sarathai" then send("terminate and selfdestruct")."
    - Makarios says, "Serve well and perish."
    - Xaden says, "Xaden confirmed scrub 2017."

    Yes, comrade. And one day when Mother Russia allows, we live in peace like the Amerikas.

    One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one's work is terribly important

    OHV-fohn, or OHV-finn. Aodhfionn was originally supposed to be the name, but, you know. Kind of missed the 'h'.'

    Tbh I still read it as "Ode Phone," so w/e.
    Not going to lie, I still call you Aye-Od-Fie-Onn, like a scrub.
    I pronounced it as: A-odd-fee-own.

    There's always a few Achaeans running around that has this happen to them. I was like this to @Rotose for the longest time (thought of it was Rose-toe)
    You know, that one thing at that one place, with that one person.

    Yea, that one!

  • BorivojBorivoj Seattle, WA
    Bořivoj - BORZH-ee-voi. Honestly, the 'rolling an r into a zh sound'  is about the best I can describe it. 
  • TharvisTharvis The Land of Beer and Chocolate!
    according to @Aduan, my name is pronounced tar-fish
    Aurora says, "Tharvis, why are you always breaking things?!"
    Artemis says, "You are so high maintenance, Tharvis, gosh."
    Tecton says, "It's still your fault, Tharvis."

  • AziikAziik
    Aziik was originally meant to be pronounced "As-ick" but so many people I ask say they thought it was As-eek that I stopped caring which was used heh. Though since it's which I use it's As-ick.

    Both lah-dee-oh and lah-dyoh are fine.
  • AmunetAmunet Spokane, Washington, USA
    Oh, dear. This again? 

    Since most of the newbs with whom I have interacted since my return won't want to dig through eleven pages of this thread to find it, my character's first name is pronounced, "ah-moo-NET", and her surname is pronounced, "vee-ah-TREE". Enforcing this pronunciation is a losing battle. 
    My avatar is an image created by this very talented gentleman, of whose work I am extremely jealous. It was not originally a picture of Amunet, but it certainly looks a great deal like how I envision her!
  • SarienoSarieno Spokane, WA
    Sarieno = Sah-ree-no. Since people keep pronouncing it -Sah-ry-ah-no I accept that too.

  • RhiteRhite
    Mine is a bit hard to pronounce. His name goes like /rīt/, which is very extremely similar to the barely-used and obscure words, Right and Rite. So the rite of pronouncing Rhite's name is kinda hard to grasp, right? Rhite's rites,right ? :p

    Um.

    El-uh-ween. (ween as in Halloween.) (El as in the the letter L)
