Mel - Quite simple, pronounced like Mel Brook, Mel Gibson or Mel Blanc.
I - Like you are going to say is but stop halfway. Not an eeeee sound.
Rune - Roooooooooooooooon. Rooooooooooooooon.
Mel-i-rune.
I accept Meli (pronounced Mel-e) as shortform >,>

DHXIII actually comes from a user name I made back when I was 13 (I'm 16 now) that user name was 'Darkheart13'. I realised later that I did not like the emo vibe so I changed it so that people would still be able to recognise me.
The way it's pronounced is Dee-Eich Thirteen.
Tonight, I shall go to sleep a little more knowledgable
SERIOUSLY THOUGH how could you be so nosy(Your name can lead to double meanings)
I got him because of that like 5 minutes ago, seriously though.

ARR (like a pirate)
JAH (like the Spanish laugh)
N (like the letter)
ARR JOHN = Arjahn, not ArJAN, Erjon or airjoohn, Arjahn.
It's very simple once you know it, but nobody seems to know on the first try

Fun fact: My first ever username was Davros13 I think I was 10 when I created the account (It was on Youtube).

I always just figured it was pronounce (newd-u-roo), but anyway mine is just (king-chris) I know how sad I came up with it when I was 12 (17 now) but out of all my other user names this one is the most personal so I figured I'd use it for the forum.

Sirion was the main river in Beleriand during the First Age of Middle-earth. I think its name is sindarin. You just gotta check the phonology of sindarin and you'll get the answer! Easy enough!
Seriously though, I never really studied sindarin (or any other language created by Tolkien) but I always pronounced it "Seereeon" (which I believe is the actual spelling). But I've already heard people say "Saireeon" or "Seereeohn".
I hope I transcribed sounds well enough for you to understand. IF I had already learnt fonetics in college, I'd explain it better and with more details.

RE: How do you pronounce your username ? - Mr.Holmes - 07-05-2012 05:49 PM
I suspect you all know where my username originates from. If not, then go to any book store you may have around your area and look up any book that has to do with Sherlock Holmes. More on the note of your question, if you really have no idea.
Hol(hole)
mes(mms)
Put it together.
Holmes(hole-mms)
I'm no dictionary but I think you can pronounce Holmes correctly now. You illiterate bastard.
Oh, and Mr(mister).
But I suspect that you guys already knew that.
