Help[Opinions] Re: How would you pronounce these names?
in reply to a message by coldplayer9
Born/raised in No. California, spent about 15 years in Texas.
Jacqueline = JACK-lin
Genevieve = JEN-a-veev (my "a" is basically a schwa. Most unstressed syllables get a schwa or near-schwa for a vowel, in my accent. I just don't like writing it as "uh")
Ephraim = EFF-rum
Tamara = TAM-er-a
Anastasia = An-us-TAY-zha
Joel = Johl / JO-ul ... in between
Madeline = MAD-a-lin
Andrea = ANN-dree-a
Renee = ren-NAY
Serena = sur-REEN-a
