[Opinions] Re: Leaf
in reply to a message by Mary R.
Leaf is not as bad as Peaches or Pebbles. Not nearly!
It's about as bad as Flower.
I pronounce Liv like the second syllable in Olivia, and I like it.
I have to try hard to say Liv as "leaf" so for that reason I don't feel like I like it, but it's fine.
That pronunciation of Joaquin, btw, is how I learned to say San Joaquin Valley when I grew up in California. It's pretty normal there, I think, at least among people whose first language is English.
