[Opinions] Re: Names pronounced differently in the US and the UK
in reply to a message by Bear
I don't know if those are all correct. I'm from the UK, and I say Viola, Clementine, Adele, Sophia, Maria and Irene the way you say is American.
I have definitely never heard Sophia or Maria pronounce with an "eye" sound in them, and I know a fair few Sophias and Marias. Mariah, like Mariah Carey, might be pronounced this way...
