    If you read/speak spanish then it is just how it looks. Niño. It literally means little boy, or child (male)
    If not then, it is pronounced "Neen-yo"
    And Oslo is I guess a bit different, "Oz-low"
    Tigger is just like the character in winnie the pooh

    Niño & Eliza

    Oh, I always thought Zsa-Zsa was pronounced "Tsa-Tsa" or "Zah-Zah." Guess you learn something new everyday!

    My pets are:

    Marta: exactly like it's spelled!

    Adele: Ah-dell

    Vallis: Vall-is

    Seine: Sen
