Hi, I'm Lana, not pregnant, just like names.

How would you all pronounce the name Samien? I like it as Say-mee-en, but I think it's intended to be pronounced Sam-ee-en, which I don't like as much. Thanks.

I automatically read it as SAY-mee-en, like "Damien."

I think I'd say sam-ee-en.

I think of 1) simian (meaning "monkey-like") and 2) saimin (top ramen noodles).

i'd definitely pronounce it Say-mee-en.

I pronounced it sam-ee-en and I don't like either version. =/

I thought said Semen... twice.

I hate the name.

Depends on the origin, so I'd ask the name bearer!

I think say-mee-en, which sounds an awful lot like semen :/ I think its a cute name, but that kinda ruins it for me.
