    Mine is difficult for non-Dutch-speaking people...! During our 2 years stay in the USA, not 1 person pronounced ot correctly...

    So it is LUT The problem is that the "u" is NOT pronouced like the "ue" in "due"!
    For those who ever learned some German, the "u" in my name is pronouced exactly like the¨ü" ("u" with "umlaut" on it( two dots).
    Maybe we better start a thread where we actually pronounce our name, so everybody can hear it!

    Mine is also pronounced Dev-inn and I constantly get called Dev-ANN (which is kind of understandable) or Dev-ON...which is pretty weird, considering I don't even spell my name with an 'o'.

    Julianne. It's pronounced like Julie-Anne.
    You wouldn't believe how many times my name has been mispronounced.

    But, most people call me Julie.

    Mine isn't mis-pronounced very often . In English it's pronounced Mich-elle.

    In french it's more of a mee-shelle.
