[Opinions] Re: Genève
in reply to a message by Mommy2B
I like it.
I prefer Genevieve pronounced the English way. As pretty as the French way is, it would never be pronounced right. I could maybe handle 'zheh-neh-VEEV', but 'ZHEN-vay-eev' would be too problematic.

I'm hoping people around here (Vancouver, BC)would be able to pronounce Geneviève the french way, since French is one of our country's national languages. I should start asking my neighbors etc. if they know how to pronounce it.
'ZHAN-vee-ev' or 'zhen-eh-VEEV'?
ZHAN-vee-ev
