The [name_u]French[/name_u] pronunciation in an American accent (and my preferred pronunciation) is uh-NUKE (going to differ slightly depending on accent) and the [name_m]Dutch[/name_m] pronunciation in an American accent is uh-NUK (will differ slightly depending on accent)

Thanks for the tag! This is my daughter’s name, and the pronunciation we use is closest to the French one, since we have French family.

Rhymes with Luke, stress on second syllable, first syllable more AH than UH.

i say it as ah-nuk (?) like the first part of how inukshuk is pronounced but with an ‘a’ beginning. simply because i can’t get past the ‘nuke’ part in the name if it’s pronounced the other way :))

14

I pronounce it as “ah-NOOK” rhyming with book.
