I pronounce it Bern-eece - to rhyme with geese. I actually sort of like
Bernice pronounced that way, and can see it as a terrific middle name. It has that rhythm that works well as a middle name.
Then I heard that some people pronounce it Bern-is - to rhyme with furnace. I hate this pronunciation, so much so that it has completely ruined the name for me.
Combos (with Bern-eece pronunciation of course)
