I have lived in the UK my whole life.

I pronounce Caroline KA-ruh-lien, with the 'a' as in 'apple' and 'lien' rhyming with 'mine'.

---

I pronounce Maria muh-REE-uh, but if I'm not mistaken it would have been pronounced muh-RIE-uh in England in 1778. (Basing this off the 1995 BBC adaptation of Pride & Prejudice lol)

LISTEN TO THE MUSTN'TS
- Shel Silverstein

Listen to the MUSTN'TS, child,
Listen to the DON'TS
Listen to the SHOULDN'TS
The IMPOSSIBLES, the WON'TS
Listen to the NEVER HAVES
Then listen close to me—
Anything can happen, child,
ANYTHING can be.
