So we're going for Acmlm too? Ack-ulm from me.

Then again, how do you pronounce some letters picked at random? ;)

How do you pronounce Gywall? ^_~

I occasioanlly use the Acmlmesque name "inghp" in Zelda games. Pronounced ing-hup or ing-up.

Jye-wall.

My real name gets mispronounced a lot. It's not tahr-in or ty-ren.

Anya's on the money there.

If it were to be pronounced how TKB says it.. I'd have spelt it with a J. ;)

Ka-foo-ka and Ack-limm. :P (I really have no idea where the last one came from, but eh)

I do so just like this.

I also say "Guywall" for Epele's name. I also just noticed I heard myself say my name two different ways. Although I stick with a certain way mostly.

Last view: 1813 days 		I pronounce Kafuka as "ka-foo-ka"

Emuz as "em-use"

Gywall as "jeyewall" (like in Gyro and a brick wall)

Acmlm is tricky... I never say it the same way twice in a row... It's hard to decide what random vowels to insert to make it pronounceable.

I always pronounced Epele with a hard g- I didn't realize it could be pronounced otherwise. :P

I guess I used a J sound because of words like "gyroscope".

I rhyme it with drywall. And often enough I just simply call him Drywall.

That one is extremely easier to pronounce because it actually contains a vowel xD

Also, I pronounce Gywall's name with a J. I think me and him have actually had this conversation before.

How do you all pronounce my name? I bet it's wrong :D. Well kinda.

There are actually a few names I don't have verbal pronunciations for. Since it is on the 'net and I rarely have to talk about stuff on the board/online IRL I don't have to try. Works out in the long run. (works out I suck at figuring out them on my own lol)

I know, it's not Acmlm with its mass of consonants. But I'm curious.

I say "kuh-FOO-kuh".
I say it close to this. "Kah-foo-kuh". I don't enunciate the uu sound in fu, I just let it roll on to the next syllable.

I used to say Gywall like "G-wall" actually... as for Danika, it can easily be represented in katakana as well ;)

お名前 はダニカです？　そうですね。

My old alter ego was "Amuji" which was named out of a very poorly kanafication of 'Emuz' lol :)
