I just want to toss out that I recently met a [name_f]Bryony[/name_f] who pronounced her name [name_f]Bree[/name_f]-oh-nee. Apparently it’s mispronounced regularly (probably because, as the majority of responses have indicated, the conventional pronunciation is different than her own), and she often introduces herself as “[name_f]Bree[/name_f].”
