pronouncing your username

[realityisterror]

Kill-oom-in-ati

I've always wondered if perhaps you read Angels and Demons a few days before registering here at MR... Is it in anyway a reference towards the Illuminati, as in "Kill Illuminati"?

That said, I wish I had an exciting username that would shock and amaze everyone when revealed. Nope.
reality. is. terror.

 

[emw]

Me too!

No, he's just the second half of that.

ann-kay (not ank, but I suppose that was obvious , or maybe only to me? ).

Always thought of it as ankh as well.

It really doesn't matter to me but in my mind my handle is pronounced 'skim-oh'.

it has been scheme-oh so long in my head that, sadly, it'll have to stay that way.

Like taking two aspirin in the morning.

I'm rather proud of myself for getting that right from the very beginning.

...but some people have addressed me in the forums as DrQ. I hope that's not pronounced dirk!

I thought it was "dork".

Or just 'dcv' for short. Or kinky boots ;)

I think you should change it to dcv*because that's the only way we refer to you anymore.
* Or kinky boots... also good.

mine is how it looks: nj - mac

Always will be "ninja mac" to me. Stuck that way in my head....

For some reason, when ever some one says my name they want to say it like Agent Smith.....

it is inevitable.... had to follow it up with an agent smith quote

I've always said SKEE-mo, matching the sound EEE-mo which is how I thought your nickname of Emo was pronounced (with the sc added for "Starcraft"). Is Emo pronounced IM-oh?

Doctor Q is easy to pronounce, but some people have addressed me in the forums as DrQ. I hope that's not pronounced dirk!

Most of my friends and family pronounce Emo 'IM-oh', but I do have a couple that say 'EEE-mo'. Most call me Emerson now though . Emo was my childhood name .

C-raise-ee Baa-star-d.

Darn, and to think that I have been pronouncing your name as mad jew all along. Don't I feel foolish now......

 

[SamIchi]

Sammy-Chi (first & start of my middle name)

or

Sam-Ee-Chi (first name & the japanese number 1)

either way is fine.

I believe he's referring to Tupacs last recorded album.

You forgot to translate from Australian English.

 

[Danksi]

Danks - i

As in Danksee or Danksy.

Excellent! I figured with yours there would be some coded attachment with the letterings, so I had to wade through Bengali 101, Farsi for boneheads, Arabic and Myanmar and finally came up the correct pronunciation. "Waw-Yéh-Gha". And you thought we'd never guess.

 

[dmw007]

You forgot to translate from Australian English.

Ah ha, so that is where I went wrong. Thanks for the tip emw!

 

[mad jew]

You forgot to translate from Australian English.

Bloody oath, Bruce, got it in one.

 

[rickvanr]

rick-van-r.. for Rick vanRavenhorst. Clever, I know.

 

[realityisterror]

I believe he's referring to Tupacs last recorded album.

And here I was thinking I was clever

I suppose that would fit with his 'tar a slight bit better than some old anti-religious group

Well done... you're the first to get it right!

BTW, I've attached emw's....

 

[MongoTheGeek]

My bad. He's the MR Bastard.

[Mike Teezie]

Wow, learning a lot in this thread.

I was pronouncing vniow (vee nyow) and scem0's (skeem oh) names wrong.

 

[OutThere]

I believe we've been over this before...

the correct pronunciation of my name, attached.

 

[Flowbee]

Rhymes with Obi-Wan Kenobi.

 

[Deepdale]

I trust mine is not overly challenging ... two syllables, each four letters, split so beautifully right in the center.

 

[sushi]

I trust mine is not overly challenging

Likewise with mine!

 

[Deepdale]

Likewise with mine!

I declare us both to be perfect.
