My 4 month old is called Avie and we pronounce 'Ay Vee'. Everyone who has seen her name written down says the same

PritiPatelsMaker · 17/12/2022 22:55

Agree with ackity, I'd rhyme it with gravy.

JenniferBarkley · 17/12/2022 22:54

I'd pronounce it Ay-vee and assume it's a nickname for Ava.

It’s a-vee. Under the ‘rules’ of English language, adding an E or an EE makes the initial vowel sound its name. So adding E makes an A a literally ‘A’ not an ah or anything else.

Purplemagnolias · 17/12/2022 22:15

Could be either Ay of Ah at beginning, so I'd wait to be told.
