How do you pronounce your username ?
Right, the problem with some forums is that some people have bizarre usernames that could be pronounced in many different ways (I'm looking at you, DHXIII. Is it "DH 13"? "DHX 3"? "Deuhksii"? Big Grin)
For clarity, how does one go about pronouncing your username ?

Mine's fairly obvious so I won't elaborate Cool

People usually have a more difficult time getting my name down than pronouncing it. Always getting that "O" at the end.

"C F Double-M" is how I usually tell people to say it. Originally it was just each letter individually but emcee's usually slur the second M.

Occasionally I get "see-fem", "cuff-em", and other weird pronunciations from people who don't understand that an all-caps mash of letters usually isn't meant to be pronounced like a word.

The romanization for korean is mostly jank, though I do like the way it spells it.

Tokki (토끼) is more like "too-kee".

RE: How do you pronounce your username ?
Well since my name caused this dilemma I'll elaborate.

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.

My username is just how you think it is, if not then I help people pronounce it.

People normally don't have trouble with mine, although some people have called me Xylophone. It's pronounced like Zah-lih-phone.

There was a speck of stuff on my screen, I thought you had some weird accent above the o in your name for ages, cos it was there when I first saw your name here. But no, you haven't got a weird name, I'm just mucky.
