[Opinions] Re: How do you pronounce these?

Esmé = ez-MAY, well the "may" part doesn't really make an ay sound, if you know what I mean. It's the sound of a long French é. Hard to explain. I would definitely spell it Esmée for a girl. I'm fluent in French as my mom is from France but it's hard to explain.
