    Nebo's name has been mispronounced a lot so I guess it's harder than it looks. I suppose it looks more like "Neh-bo" but it's actually "Nee-bo." It's like the name Nemo in Finding Nemo, except with a B. He is often mistakenly called Nemo.

    Sydney: Sid-nee
    Reggie: Redge-ee

    Frisk.... how it looks.
    Ethan... E-thin
    Melani... Mel-un-ee
    Khaith... It basically sounds like "Keith", with the E replaced with an A... the H is silent.
    Skylar... Sky-lur

    I guess the only one I could see people messing up is Depot (DEE-PO).
