Do you pronounce it jo-ANN-a (like
Joanna) or jo-HANN-a (like Jo+Hannah)?
I really like the second pronunciation (Jo+Hannah) but I'm worried people will always pronounce it like
Joanna. I like
Joanna but to me it's a different name with a different pronunciation. I just don't get why people don't pronounce the H in
Johanna, I can't think of any other names that are pronounced with a silent H in English, unless it's at the end of the name.
If you pronounce it like jo-ANN-a, where are you from (just the country will do)?
Do you think people would be more likely to pronounce Johannah as Jo+Hannah than
Johanna?
What do you think of
Johanna and Johannah?
Joana and
Joanna?
