Before I heard it being said I kept pronouncing the surname “Mangione” as “Man-jee-own” rather than “man-jo-nee” and I’m still ashamed about it lol I’m sorry

    Ghislaine, but I do it on purpose.

    I’m still trying to get some Irish names right in my head, specifically Rhiannon and especially Siobhan.

      I did so too but that’s because I knew an actual Ghislaine who pronounced her own name like “djizlaine”
