How do you pronounce your names?

There are as many ways to say my name as there are languages with a concept of the number 4, or 44 if you’d prefer. You can use any of these you feel comfortable with- some of 'em are really fun to say.

Japanese: I-shi-shi or I-shi-ju-shi
German: E-vier-vier or E-vier-und-vier-zig
Swahili: E-nne-nne or E-a-ro-bai-na-nne

And a personal favorite:
Maori: E-e-whā-e-whā, or E-whā-teh-kau-mah-whā

You could get even more crafty with it and try translating “double four” too, but I think I’ve already given a fair enough place to start.

I just say ‘E-four-four.’

If you can pronounce “Chaotic” “Temple” and “Knight”, you should have no problem whatsoever.

Easy as pumpkin pie.

Uh… No. Good guess though! If you have Return of the King (the Lord of the Rings, Vol. III) you should turn to the appendices and find the pronunciation guide.

ROO-na

I feel I have to clarify this as half the time, text-to-speech programs say it like ‘runna’, almost like saying ‘runner.’
