Help[Opinions] Re: Nimue

Nope, you're pronouncing it right. I don't think it'd have too many pronunciation issues. How else would you try to say it? Nim-you? It would get odd looks and no one would know how to spell it when spoken, though, which is just as bad.

I actually heard it pronounced NEEM-yoo on an educational video about King Arthur last semester. I'd always pronounced it nim-oo-ay, so I thought it was strange but figured I must've been wrong.

That's interesting. I've never heard it any other way but nim-oo-ay either.

The guy who was prnouncing it was French. That might account for it, then again it might not.
