Pronounciation Guide: ISRP Explores the Names of Characters!

[Gene_Kynes]

Eh, why not.

Fantasy
Gene: GEEN.

Umbra: OOM-brah.

Darvin Eventide: Dar-VEEN EE-Vehn-Tyde

Serathis Bloodseeker: SERE-ah-thiss BLUD-sea-kur.

Aaron Sindweller: AYE-ronn ZIND-vell-err (German Pronounciation, on the last name.)

Malak Bellarosa: Mal-ACK Bell-ah-ROS-A

D20 Modern
Gordon Cross: GOR-dun KRO-ss

Ryan Luciano: Rye-AN Loo-SEE-ano

Nabil Mneimneh: Nah-BEEL Muh-NAME-neh
Proper, but more difficult pronounciation: MmmNAME-neh. Stringing the first two together,

Ali Moughleyeh: A*-LEE MOOGH**-LEE-EH.

*This is a flexibility of the vocal cords test. The first part in Ostrich has it, however, just deepen the sound of the O. Shouldn't come out as "aw", but "Auwww". Er, something wierd to English-speakers, basically.

**This is a kind of virbrating sound in the throat, very brief. Starts in the back of the mouth, where your tounge and throat almost meet. Eh. This is the more annoying of my two arab character names to pronounce.

And Quath? I've given up on trying any other name pronounciation other than "Thok".

Still in shock of how fun Ren Faire was,

[Aesynil]

Jethylxar'th -- Just try it. I dare ya too.
Kali-verath -- Heheh, 'nother decent one
Edwinian'thales'tilinavian -- Not even WORTH trying.

My contribution to the fun

 

[Tharivious_Meliamne]

Consider the challenge taken Aesynil

Jethylxar'th = Jeth-EEL-zar-tha
Kali-verath = Kah-LEE VER [as in dare] -ahth
Edwinian'thales'tilinavian = Ed-win-EE-an'tha-LESS'til-in-AYV-ee-an

Am I anywhere near close?

 

[Ethera de Lioncourt]

Now I know how to properly say some of my favorite folks names around the ISRP..And get to be happy since I knew how to say alot of them anyways!

For the record...

Ethera- (Eh-theer-ah)

Moondyre-( Moon- dire)

Panthea- (Pan-thee-ah)

Jibbles- (Okay you can't figure this out don't talk to her.LOL)

Lucretia- (La- cree- sha)

Simple enough, huh?

 

[Quathmoir Dlaeh Issarhai]

And Quath? I've given up on trying any other name pronounciation other than "Thok".

soon you'll have an opportunity to meet Thok.
No need to try pronounce Zincaller's name btw, people don't stay around him long enough to get to know his name, usually. Well, not alive atleast

Remind me, where are you from?

 

[WizO_Siani]

Siani = sheAH-nee. Slightly aspirated 's'.

Bailey came closest. I am told that an older pronunciation was SHAN-nee. I prefer it the way it was given to me.

Siani

 

[Gene_Kynes]

Lebanon, Quath. Wish they spent more on the restoration after th'civil war, though. My bedroom still has bullet holes in it. *sniffle.*

Okay, okay...I'm gonna give some of the Evil Intentions people a shot.

Kulideb: KOOL-ee-deb

Agudo: Ah-GOOD-oh

Might as well add a few more character names that I play from time to time:

Mintaka - Min-tah-kah
Nikita Kaslin - Nih-kee-tah Khaas-linn
Tzumae - Soo-may

Aaannnd i've forgotten the rest of those I play, so I'll leave it at that for now.
