It wasn't until Pearl Harbor (the movie) that I realized the name Rafe I'd been reading in romance novels was pronounced "Rayf" and not "Raf-ee".


What have you been pronouncing wrong forever? :P

I used to pronounce all the X names actually with an "ex" sound
eg Xavier (Ex-Ay-Vee-ar); Xander (Ex-and-er); Xaris (Ex-are-iss)

I pronounce Xavier Ex-ay-vee-er, it is the only way in my eyes.
