Not me deciding that the character should go by their last name instead…

I thought so too! But after investigating it, I’ve seen it pronounced both ways, though I think rhyming with borrow is the more correct way, but both seem equally as common?
I am american and I would agree with this, that the first syllable of borrow pretty much rhymes with car. I personally instinctively pronounce Yarrow where the first syllable rhymes with car in an american accent.

Thanks for weighing in on the Yarrow pronunciation debate. I also just learned that it’s wheelbarrow, not barrel, that’s crazy! I realized borrow is a confusing word to use as a rhyming example, especially with different accents!
It seems like this is a name that would have some confusion around pronunciation but hopefully is easy to learn
I apologize if I’ve posted on this before, but choose your preferred spelling for each.

After Zoe Sugg’s baby announcement, I’m left pondering how to pronounce Ottilie!

I really wish I liked it because it feels like it’d be right up my alley plus it’s the name of a character from one of my favorite show (she’s a super cool character too), but I just can’t get into it. Plus it was the name of my aunts dog that I grew up with so that association will always be there for me

The names themselves don’t match but they have similar vibes to me
[name_u]Love[/name_u] the name but it has a derogatory meaning in Russian so I can’t seem to get past that
Went with Ott-till-ee but I’m pretty sure “ott” and “awt” sound exactly the same for me? Also, I’m Midwestern, so the T’s probably sound more like D’s.
ATLA? Love it!
I love her character so much 
Also, @VivienaLunelle123, I’m not sure what to vote for the poll, because I love [name_f]Suki[/name_f] as a nickname, but dislike it as a full name.
She’s so cool! And I love the message of a strong female warrior who A.) doesn’t try to act like a guy, and B. Isn’t objectified!
