Hey all!

I'm really curious how my name will be pronounced and spelled in Japan.
My first name is 'Mirmana' (Mir-maa-naa) and my last name is 'van Melis' (vàn Mee-lis).
The 'a' in van is the Dutch pronounciation, with a short 'a', like in "Watashi". And the double 'e' is pronounced as the English 'a' in 'aid' f.e.

Thanks in advance!

How would you say my name in Japan? My name is Jonathan Millard...

I couldn't resist asking, but how would you say "Heather" with out the "th" sound?

jazzbeans · Postby **jazzbeans** » February 3rd, 2010 7:14 pm

The 'th' sound is replaced by an S/Z sound of some kind.

Heather = ヘザー (Hezaa)
the brilliant green = ザ・ブリリアント・グリーン(Za buririanto guriin)
Heath = ヒース (hiisu)
etc...

Thank you! My husband said I should just go by my initial, but I really don't want to be called "H".
