This name came to my attention earlier today but I wanted to see what they typical pronunciation is.
[name]Do[/name] you say it gin-[name]NEV[/name]-ra or [name]Gin[/name]-NEEV-ra?

I pronounce [name]Ginevra[/name] jen-[name]NEV[/name]-ra. It’s a lovely name.

I’m pretty sure it’s gin-EV-ra, even though I pronounced it gin-EEV-ra in my head the first time i saw it (in [name]Harry[/name] [name]Potter[/name])… I love the name!!

I say gi-[name]NEV[/name]-ra.

[name]Hi[/name]!

I think it is actually [name]GIN[/name]-eve-rah, as in this link: Ginevra pronunciation: How to pronounce Ginevra in Italian, English

Take care,
