[Opinions] Re: How would you pronounce these names?
in reply to a message by coldplayer9
Jacqueline - jack-leen
Genevieve - jen-eh-veev
Ephraim - eh-frah-em
Tamara - tah-mah-rah
Anastasia - anna-stah-see-ah
Joel - jo-el or yoo-el (Swedish) - note that jo-el is not pronounced the same as Joelle (jo-ELLE). It's the same with Noel (no-el) and Noelle (no-ELLE) too.
Madeline - mad-eh-len
Andrea - an-dreh-ah
Renee - reh-neh (eh - like the E in Eric, not -ay)
Serena - seh-ree-nah or seh-reh-nah (Swedish)
I'm from Sweden but this is how I would pronounce them in English. As you can see I've mentioned when a pronunciation is Swedish.
