Will you pronounce your screen name please?

Mine seems too simple to bother.

There are a few of you who I had no idea that that’s how you pronounce your name!

er, so on Xena they say it right, right? Cuz that’s how I was saying it.

What’s wrong with liking improvised vocal Jazz? :smiley: Why do you think I insist on spelling it with a k? S’kitty also works. Or, oo! S’tyger. Styyyyyyygerrrrr. =^__^=

Mine’s mostly how it’s spelled.
“FREEK - uh - LET” with a bit more accent on the first syllable than the third.

Some of these are making me :eek:

Oh, that was me being all overdefensive again. My bad :smack:

Eleanor Rigby.

You figure it out. I have faith in you. If you are seriously having trouble, I suggest listening to a certain Beatle’s song…

Five. Four. Fighting.

As in, “Tweet! That’s a five-minute penalty in the box for fighting!”

Hope that helps.

“Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da”?

:smiley:

Nope, Brenda. I know you heard Rick put more of a “brin” on it, but let’s face it–he’s a freaky Brit. You can’t trust him to pronounce it right. :slight_smile:

Long, boring story alert: I was raised in Tennessee. We pronounce “en” like “in”, so pen and pin rhyme, as do Jennie and Ginny. So Brynda with a y is pronounced Brinda, not Brenda, but not because of the freaky spelling, but because well, we is weird. However, when non-Tennesseans try to call me Brinda, it sounds like Briiiinda, and grates my poor ears. Therefore, Brenda is the pronunciation I prefer. Or Throatwarbler Mangrove. You choose.

S’alright. I’ve had those moments myself.

ssss’tyyyyyygeerrrrrrrrrrr. whee!

Katherina (my maternal grandmother’s name).

POOY-kaw-mell or POOY-kuh-mell

DIE-yo-mee-deez.

or dee-ah-MAY-days, if you’ve got a hard on for Greek, I guess.

Sorry, you’ll always be “Lead Bath” to me. :stuck_out_tongue:

My name? It’s Cue-Ee… ah, screw it, it’s letters! It’s pronounced the way it looks. :wink:

I was thinking “I am the Walrus.”

d&r

It’s all been letters (well, and numbers), except for that guy named _________________.

Gaul-wee-jin

:smiley:

What does d&r stand for?

You’ve been here long enough to post nearly 18,000 times and you don’t know “d&r” means “ducks & runs”?
