[Opinions] Goseph
I came across a Goseph the other day. Pronounced just the same as Joseph. Can't say I'm a fan, but I thought I'd share.

Geoseph/Geosef seems better, the g is softened by the e

He should be a cabaret act, or something. Go-Go Goseph.

I'm not a fan of Joseph, as is. But Goseph, is utterly atrocious.

I'm not a fan of the letter G, so I can't say I like it.And I can't even think of how many people would pronounce that GO-seph.

I hate when people do that, spell a name in a way it makes no sense. I had a huge discussion on another forum with people who thought it wasn't a big deal to spell Kevin like Cevin because "people still understand that it's suppose to be pronounced like Kevin"

They could spell it Cefin and pretend to be Welsh. :)

Gioseph would've made more sense. :/

LOL!This reminds me of a conversation I had with a friend and her boyfriend the other day. He's a teacher in a posh rural suburb and my friend was saying the kids in his class "all have the same names - but all spelled differently" and I started asking if he had any Gosh's and Gordan's (Josh and Jordan). Alas, no Goshes! I'd call Goseph Go for fun.

That makes no sense. In English an o following a g would not make it a soft g. Someone should've told them that. :/
