    Re: How do you pronounce your handle?

    Ill-lou-in.

    People seem to have a hard time saying mine out loud. I used to play KoL regularly, and it made me laugh to hear people struggle over it.

            Dura-Han-Solo but for some reason I end up with people saying:

            Duran (as in Duran Duran)
            Durhan (as in too lazy to add or see the letter "a" in there)

            And I tell people all the time to just say Dura but they proceed to try to type Durahansolo and butcher it so badly.

            I always end up with someone like Gandolfwhite trying to type it and he says:

            DURANSOLLO!!!!!!

            Causing me to shake my head.

                    One of my in game names people screw up sometimes. You know how people will shorten your name? So like Boldfinger would probably be called Bold. Well one of my characters is TheMom (of course in FFXI it looks like Themom because you can't capitalize the M) and people call me Them. It's freaky for me cause there is an old sci-fi movie about aliens called Them. ( Them! (1954) ) So for future reference its

                          Maybe it's just because you remind them of an awesome Stargate character?

                            Same. I'm usually okay-ish at guessing how a name is pronounced.

                            Mine:

                            Telera: Tel-uh-ruh
                            Caeryn (my taru alt): Say-rin

                            Pretty straightforward.

                                Lunaryn is pretty simple, let's break it down:

                                Lu - Let's pronounce this 'luh' as in 'lull'.
                                n - Ehn.
                                ary - Airy!
                                n - Looks like Ehn, but really pronounced Gzvblegrtgzbl.
