[Opinions] Re: Names you mispronounced
in reply to a message by ari.
Athena- thought for the longest time it was Uh-then-uh
Xanthippe- Though FOREVER it was pronounced Zan-thip which I though was gross. (Still don’t really like zan-Tip-ee)
Alejandra- for a little bit I thought this name was pronounced Al-uh-jan-druh
Rowena- Thought Row-en-uh for a while. Learned it’s more commonly Row-een-uh. I like what I thought WAY better.
Persephone- Per-suh-phone
Thais- Thought I was thay-ice
Lyra- Just learned that it is pronounced Lie-ruh and not Leer-uh (so disappointed like what I thought better)

I also prefer ro-EN-a to ro-EEN-a! Forgot about that one, it's also how I initially pronounced it.
