sorry, i didn't mean to imply that saying
Zoe with one syllable is some totally incorrect thing. what i don't get is people who act all shocked at the idea that it can be said with two syllables, or that any other name can be said differently than how it may look in English. i'll edit the original post to specify that. i can accept that "zo" can be correct in English, since
Zoe has history being used in English. like how
Camille is said with the l sound in English, but not the original French. i just get annoyed when people go all "what do you mean you have a name that doesn't have an English pronunciation", y'know.
also, i like
Zoe Camille a lot! it's not what i'd expect, because they seem so different.
Zoe has a very purple vibe, while
Camille is orange or gold to me.
