How do you pronounce your character's name?

Jonathin

I like El-uh-wine better.

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. 

"Amunet" pas prononcé comme en français? Dommage, sonne bien!


As for me:

You could also use that and I pronounce her name like that sometimes, too, because I am very indecisive, though I don't use El-uh-wine.

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.

Wow after all these years of Odd-Fee-On

Watchman

Watchman.

Aquil

Yea but is it a heavy wh on the watch or is it more of a direct straight forward wa on the watch?

So is your name pronounced: Whatchmhan or Waatchmaan?

Yes. Also Whatchmin. 

Aerek

Pronouncing Watchman is all well and good, but who watches the Watchman?

If the RP logs are any indication, @Taraus does as he does his sexy little man-dance.

"Amunet" n'est pas prononcé comme en français? Dommage, sonne bien!

Natliya

...Never going to look at your name the same way now, @Ainly.

And for the thirtieth time, it's "Gnat-LIe-yAh"!
Not "Nat-tili-ah"
Not "Nah-tit-yeah"
Not "Nat-lee-ya"
Not "Gnat-lick-ya"
Not "Gnat-tit-lie"
It's "Gnat-LIe-yAh"

You all know who you are.
ALL of you know -exactly-... who... you... are.
-.-

Gamden

"Gam" like..Ham
"den" as in din in dinner?

"Gamdin"

Seftin

With my mouth.

Natliya

So... Some of you didn't get the pronunciation correct.
Allow me to reiterate using what it sounds like when pronounced on a record that is playing backwards;
/'trʌbəl/

Questions?

Aesi

Ay-See

Raem

@Aesi

Mingmei

Ming rhymes with ring and mei sounds like the month of May.

Basileios

Buh-Sil-E-Ous

Eko

Echo echo echo

Mindshell

I originally tried to double capital letter my name when creating my character but Achaea said "NO!" so apparently there's been some confusion ever since as I am frequently asked this.

For anyone who is interested it's [mind - shell] as in skull, not [minds - hell] as in deranged.

Mine is easy. "SMASH".

@artemis I thought that would be hard-to-miss

Eoka

Ee-oh-kuh
(the E is a hard E, like in Lee or Bee)

WarMaster is the only one whose name I am aware of went through like that.
