Names!

[Everstar]

there are a few names that i am struggling with i hope you can help!

 

Egwene

Nynaeve

Moiraine

 

a few other things id like to know how to say

 

Callandor

Avendesora

Ta'veren

[OptimusPrime]

Egwene

 

I say it "Eh Gwen" as one word. It could quite possibly be Eg-Wayne, which wouldnt surprise me, and I would count that as an amazing joke.

 

Nynaeve

 

Nina Eve. I really like the name Nynaeve, its simple and ordinary yet unusual at the same time. Also my favorite female character.

 

Moiraine

 

Now I know I say this wrong. I think its meant to be Mwa Rain. I dont like saying it like that though lol. I just say Mo Rain with the Mo sounding the same as in Moridin.

 

Callandor

 

I pronounce it like calendar but with door at the endC calendoor.

 

Avendesora

 

Pretty much as it looks. A Venn de Soara, would easily sound right as a modern place name.

 

Ta'veren

 

I cant write how I say it! Erm.... Ta Vair en. Vair sounding like air, not like ire or some such like ai sounds in Aes Sedai. Tav Air en.

 

Just looking at them written as I say them is weird!
