[Opinions] Re: Purposefully mispronounced names
in reply to a message by Marija Luminitsa
I pronounce Joel like that. It's the regular German pronunciation of the name and the only one I like. I didn't know it was considered wrong.
I hate the Italian Gi- thing as well. It's luckily not as common, but what I hate even more is that I know a Guiliana who pronounces her name joo-lee-AH-nah. It doesn't even make any sense.

How else would you pronounce Guiliana?

Well, if I'd see it, I'd pronounce it gwil-ee-AN-a. Since when is "gui" pronounced as "joo"? Seems her parents got it confused with Giuliana.

Ahhh I had a dyslexic moment there for a moment. I was like, "What? That totally does NOT make sense Ela. What crack are you on?"
And then I realize... oh.
Lol. Woospie :)
