Help[Opinions] Re: Names pronounced differently in the US and the UK
in reply to a message by molly
My great uncle Maurice is MORE-iss, but whenever I see it, I do want to say mor-EESE. I'm in the US. The only ones I can think of that would be different are ones that end in -er. In the US, it's /r/, but in the UK, it would be /uh/.

Depends where you are; there are quite a few rhotic accents in the UK.
