Merlwyb Bloefhiswyn

[Akira_Tenshi]

I apologise for making a thread just to ask this but it is bugging me especially since I decided to join the Maelstrom. How on earth do you pronounce this name!? I struggle with a few of the names in this game but Merlwyb Bloefhiswyn is by far the worst.

Please if anyone knows I'd be grateful if you could help.

Murl-wib blow-his-win

the "f" being silent maybe?

I really wish they would tone the crazy names down a bit, they can be real tongue twisters lol.

[Aion]

I read the last name as blowfish,lol

Thanks, Gramul that sounds about right. Thanks for trying everyone else.

I Tend to dumb the names down in my head, like the Songstress of Ul'dah, I pronounce her name like salmon, just with a FL.. haha

[Akira_Tenshi]

I just make names up if I can't read them lol. It's not just the names, the dialogue in this game can be difficult to read sometimes or when when I read it just fine I don't really take any of it in and have to read it again, and man characters in this game love to talk, and talk and talk....

Not related to the thread topic but;

I really, really hate reading pirate slang. I wish they have more voice over for those stuff. I just don't understand pirate talk when you have to read them.
