Re: Pronounce?
Well the Spanish equivalent (Acevedo) is pronounced Ass-Ev*-Ed-O**... *As in "evolution" not as in "eve"
**As in "evOlutiOn" not as in "J.Lo"Judging from pronouncation differences between Spanish and Portuguesee I guess, but can't tell, it would be a run-in version of it, giving enfasis/emphasis (however it is spelled) to the "z" and making the "eve" sound like "ivy". But I can't really tell... Foreign pronunciation is always harder than etymology...
