^ "...and one small aubergine!"

I pronounce my name Paul, but spell it that way to avoid ambiguity.

RYSE-POO-REEN

I don't mind being referred to as "rice pudding" either

the name is based on a sanrio character, Pom pom Purin.

I always referred to you as "Pu o tch es"

Mine would be Ro Be R So Ra (all the R's are meant to be rolled German-style), but most of the people here seem to refer to me as rober, so that's ok.

Sailor (Sailor Moon for life!) Stardust (1 word, though I tend to spell it as 2).

Shirley.

I like Calamari. I like Katamari. ??? A Catamari was born!

I normally pronounce it

hev-ē-tred

It's actually supposed to be two words not one.

Nice try, but you're not getting my True Name.

Postby **NemZ** » Fri Jul 04, 2014 1:26 pm

I don't pronounce it. A username is something you type, not say.

The-Fri-Ski-E-N

So many people at work pronounce my name as "I-N". Drives me crazy.

...I mentally read it as "nimzie". -o-;

I think how we pronounce each others' is more interesting. I pronounce NemZ as Nemzzzzzzzz

For you to pronounce my name in my native tongue, it would take you 1000 years.

I call him something different each time to keep it interesting. Usually "Nemz" but sometimes "Nemzzzz" or "Nemzie" (sometimes emphasized as Nem-Zee) but most often I call him "Neeeemmmzzz!" in the same way Demetri Martin says "treeennndsss!".

Also "nemzy-poo" since we started [s]dating[/s] gaming together.

Oh god. LiLi is probably going to see that and start telling me she now ships us. -o-;

But if I had to pick one (and I don't), I'd pronounce it like this.

@Deli: I think of your name as the letterform equivalent of a certain shock vid that used to be passed around as a link years ago. :devil:
