Help[Opinions] Re: Name pronunciation?
in reply to a message by Egyptian Princess
Looking at it, I'd pronounce it JAV-in... kind of like a contraction of javelin. I think some people will pronounce it right, but since even I'd never heard of it until you brought it up, I don't think the vast majority of people will have heard of it.
To be honest, whether I'd pronounce it JAY-vin or juh-VAWN would depend on the ethnicity of the person. But once people know it's JAY-vin, they won't need to be told again. It shouldn't be a terribly huge deal for you or him.
