Help[Opinions] How would you pronounce this name?
There is a name me and my boyfriend really like for a boy, however I am concerned about its level of "international status", if you know what I mean. If it turns out that most people don't know this name/pronounce it wrongly, we might have to reconsider.
Without looking it up (no cheating), how would you pronounce this name? Thank you!
"Artyom Petar"

ARH tyom peh TAR?

I speak Dutch, so I can imagine how people would react to it... IMO, people would say "AHR-tee-ohm", but I think most people would just be puzzled.

Well, I'd say it as it was written, I suppose-
Arty-om Pet-ar. Or perhaps, Pee-tar.
I'm fairly sure this will prove to be wrong!

ART-YOM PEE-TAR (Well, I'd pronounce Petar like Peter but with an AR on the end instead of ER)

I'll tackle Artyom first. My first reaction was to miss out the 'y' altogether and pronounce it ART-em. But then I thought that didn't make such sense so with the 'y' I thought may be ART-yum. And then my third and final thought, and probably the one I like the most (though it took me the longest to reach) was art-EE-ohm.
Petar is a little easier. I'd either go with the English pronunciation of Peter (PEE-ter) or put the emphasis on the second syllable and go pee-TAR.

Art-Yahm Puh-TAHR."
The question is, where do you live and how do people pronounce it in your area? It looks Russian, so I assume that if you live in Russia or in an area where such names are common you won't have any problems.
