lately ive been 1derin...how r sum of the names pronounced? like is the I in eliwood like lie or like an E? list any other questionable 1s

I think the I in Eliwood is pronounced like the I in the word bit

I think the I in Eliwood sounds more like the le let

i think the pronunciation would be like "l eh wood"

I think Eliwood is "ell-ee-wood," like the "e" in "me"...

quote Cloud003

i think the pronunciation would be like "l eh wood"

i mean eh as in lit

what about legault?is it like le as in lyn?

I think Legualt is pronounced like 'Lay Gualt' where Gualt would rhyme with Vault

thats how i pronounce it

Legault and Renault are common French surnames.
They sound like "Lego" and "Reno", but the French "e" sound is not found in English, the closest thing I can think of is the "ea" in "pearl".

I think the "i " in Eliwoods sounds "ee".

How do you guys pronounce "Karel"?
Do you stress the "a" (sounds like "Karol") or the "e" (Karelle)?

I agree with you, SuperFrog.

When I say Karel I stress the "a".

EDIT: I don't know what you think about it, but it seems the most logical pronunciation to me (probably because the names Carlos (male), Carla (female) and Carol (female) are pronounced with a stressed "a" in spanish).

Im sure its pronounced Kar-elle

Carol can also be a guy's name, but you'll see it more often in slavonic languages like Russian.

I've also always pronounced it like that

What about Isadora

I've always pronounced it as

Is-a-door-a but I think it might also be pronounced

I-za-door-a or maybe something else completely
