Here's the thread where you post how your name is pronounced. I've seen many difficult names on this site that are hard to read/pronounce, so here we can post proper pronunciation.

Ok my name is pronounced like this
Sudak: Sue (like "i'm going to sue your lazy butt for tresspassing.") Dak (just like it looks, um I guess you could look at it this way, the "A" like in "apple".
So there you go that's Sudak for ya'

Weird; I always pronounced Yelae: Ye-lay. Ye as in, er, eh. Sora's an obvious one, but Bila was Bill-ah. I do not know if I'm doing the pronunciation think right, but bla. I think it was Tarkah and Shato who said they said it Beelah. I don't remember. *scratches head*

HAHA, yeah I always pronounced Bila the same way you say Tarkah and Shato said it. I still have a hard time with Fiory's name I know how to say it I'm just used to saying it the way I started... I let her tell you the way to say it

*is shato* Yah~!! BEELAH, baby. Mm, I'm glad I got Sudak right. I pronounced Yelae "ya-lay". Shato was pronounced "sha-toe-sin" Fantome was "fan-tome-A" with a long a. (i got lazy with the accent mark). I'm not sure I had other weird character names... Oh, and I pronounced Fiory "fee-ory". ;; Keechak was "key-chak"...

AHH!! Shato, stop coming back as so many different characters! *attacks* I go with Shat-o-kin. *nods* Fiory was Fi-or-ee. Arias is Air-ee-is. Uhh, who else has a funny name I'm not sure I pronounce right? Meh, I dunno.

haha Fiory told me her name was pronounced Fee or ee ... or like - Fi (like you have to pay a fee) Or (like the word or) E (the letter E) Now I was the parent that came up with Arias' name and the way I pronounced it was Air-ee-aas Air (like the air we breath) E (like the letter e) aas (long A song like the doctors says say ahhhh then add an S) but however Arias actually pronounces his name is probably how it will be As for Shato, I had always pronounced it like Shato (like you said before) cwnn (like Dr. Quin medicine woman LOL) but I tortured that name apparently

I thought fiory (though there was a point when I thought it might sound like fiery, you know the i and o making the I sound like the vowel) was the same as you Sudak... I thought that Shatocwnn, was the same too... I see I was wrong.

Yes, I pronunced it the latin way: Yah-l-EYE in latin when a and e are together it is basically like saying I or eye.
BTW, I always pronunced you name: ZEN-TEE like zen the meditation and tee like a golf tee or like the drink tea. Don't know if its right.
i also used to have a character named Reihiko "RAE-HE-CO" RAE like ray, he like... he... and co like the abbr. for company.

eep, sorry~!! it's hard not to invent new peeps. *pets bila* i have a friend named Arias. she and i pronounce it "ah-rye-us" though. i pronounced shatocwnn the way sudak did once in a while. xDD seems like everyone pronounced fiory the way i thought it was~!! i did think it was like fiery for a while, too... reihiko and zhentee are names i both pronounce the way lucivar does.
