Villager Name Pronunciations

[Cheren]

I have and probably always will call her por-tia. It kind of rhymes with tortilla. I've also tried using the megaphone to call for Aurora but she doesn't listen to any pronunciation. I pronounce Aurora like Ah-roar-uh by the way.

I saw "bow" too. It's weird how you can pronounce some names perfectly and get other names completely wrong.

How do you guys pronounce Chevre? I say it like "shev." It's the French word for goat and I don't speak French so I dunno.

Actually I only say it in my head because I don't talk about ACNL to anyone and I don't use the megaphone.

my brain hurts whenever I talk to beau in my town. I keep thinking it's pronounced "bew" (???) but I know a dude whose name is beau and it's "bow" like bowtie so.....lol

Is Tangy pronounced Tan-gee or Tang-ee? Also whenever I use the microphone, Kapp'n or Tangy ALWAYS respond. I think they should fix this by making it so Kapp'n would never respond. I mean, why would anyone call for Kapp'n? He's always at the dock, dammit! This is one of the reasons why I don't use the microphone, alongside the fact that people will think I'm talking to nothing which can be very embarrassing.

Portia is pronounced like "por-sha."

I never knew how to say Eloise's name. I always thought it was "El-ois" but it's something like "el-louise" or something right?

The true mystery is the correct pronunciation of Fuchsia. I know some peole say Few-shah but I say Foock-sie-ah.

I always have a hard time pronouncing Blanche's name. She only answers on the megaphone when I say "blank", so I'm assuming the correct pronunciation is similar, but it's so weird!

I say Blawnch, which is the French pronunciation ("blanche/blanc" is French for "white", describing the color of her feathers).

I think it's pronounced the same way as the color.

Portia = por-sha
Beau = boe
Fuchsia = few-sha
Phoebe = fee-bee
Tangy = tayng-ee

 

[petaI]

i've always had a hard time pronouncing merengues name

it's probably wrong but i always say it like mee-ren-gu :'))

 

[NinelivesBobcat]

Portia = por-sha
Beau = boe
Fuchsia = few-sha
Phoebe = fee-bee
Tangy = tayng-ee

Pretty sure the 'tang' part of Tangy is pronounced as 't-ahng', like tangled. As for the 'gy', I still don't know if it's 'gee' or 'gckee'.

It's pronounced like "mer-ang" like the dessert. C:

Apparently O'Hare responds best if you pronounce his name "O'Harr"(rhymes with star} Took me over 2 years to figure that one out XD
