I really like the look of [name_m]Ioannis[/name_m], but I’m not entirely sure about the pronunciation. I’m somewhat familiar with Greek names, but is it eye-oh-ann-ee or eye-oh-ann-is?
Hmm. I wouldn’t have guessed either! I guess it depends on the Greek characters, and I don’t know those off-hand. I would have assumed ee-oh-ahn-ees. But my goodness! I tried a quick Google search, and heard “ih-ah-[name_f]ANN[/name_f]-ees”, “[name_m]YANN[/name_m]-iss”, “ee-[name_m]AH[/name_m]-nees”, “eye-oh-[name_f]ANN[/name_f]-iss”, and a couple more! The one pronunciation with that spelling (and not the original Greek characters) has a [name_m]German[/name_m] saying “yo-AHN-iss”, almost like [name_m]Johannes[/name_m]. I guess the consensus is that nobody knows? lol.
I found the Greek characters–Ιωαννης–and put it through forvo, and a Greek man was recorded saying “ee-yo-AHN-ees”. So I guess I’ll go with that. lol.
Thanks, [name_u]Ash[/name_u]! I don’t know why I didn’t think of that. lol Eeyo-ahn-ees it is, then!
@bellerose is Greek and speaks the language, so you can message her to ask 
My good friend is Greek and is named [name_m]Ioannis[/name_m]. He pronounces [name_m]YAN[/name_m]-iss. I think it can also be yo-AHN-iss though.
I pronounce it “ee-oh-nis”
ee-oh-AAAH-nees.
I would say yoh-AHN-iss if I saw it written down, but I’m awful at pronunciations so feel free to ignore me. [name_m]Just[/name_m] caught sight of [name_m]Colin[/name_m] [name_u]Amory[/name_u] [name_m]Hugh[/name_m] in your signature - what a gorgeous combination! Is that the decided name or a contender?!
