How do you pronounce Matias? 🍃

[XxIzzixX]

Another pronunciation question!
How do you pronounce the name [name_m]Matias[/name_m]?
It’s my brother’s name, and he gets irritated at having to explain to everyone how to pronounce it right.
We say Muh-tee-ehs.
Others have said Muh-Tae-us, Muh-tie-us, or Muh-thy-us.

[CarolAnn]

I pronounce it exactly as your family does!

[krijesnica]

I say MAH-tee-us!

[katinka]

In this spelling, mah-TEE-as or MAH-tyas.

[highhippogriff]

I’d say Muh-tee-us!

[persephonescrown]

My instinct was ma-TIE-us like Matthias but I can see why I’m wrong, if that’s any consolation

[OpheliaFlora]

I’d say ma-TEE-uhs or ma-TY-uhs and would probably ask the person before assuming one of the two.

[Greyblue]

Mat-ee-us would be my go to, but I’ve also heard it said Muh-tie–us

@XxIzzixX

Muh-tee-ehs

I say it this way! I’d never really heard the name before I watched Frozen II, which has a character called Matthias. Anna pronounced his name “muh-tee-ehs,” so that’s now my default. Lol!

[Carys1]

I would instinctively say muh-tie-us because that’s the only way I’ve heard it pronounced, but I can see how it can be pronounced muh-tee-ehs

[TiffanyS]

Mah-TEE-us
