How do you pronounce Lotte?

[RoseGoldEagle]

Love the name Charlotte and Lottie, can’t decide between them. But DH says if we went for Lottie it would be spelt Lotte. Is it pronounced the same??

I’d probably pronounce it the same as Lottie.
But I wouldn’t like a name where I would have to correct people on how to spell it.

I'd think that Lotte was pronounced Lott-a

I’d pronounce it Lotta, but that’s because it looks like a Dutch/German/Scandinavian name for me.

Every Lottie I’ve known (admittedly not many) has spelt it Lottie.

Lotta

Lott-ah. As in the German eg Lieselotte.

The same as Lottie

Lottie - Lot-E

Lotte - Lot- A

I'd say Lott-uh if I seen that written.

I would be unsure how to pronounce...

Lot-ar

Tuh is a better way to put it

I wasn't 100% sure, and thought possible Lott or Lotta.

Why give a name that A) needs spelling out and B) people will pronounce incorrectly half the time???

Just go with Lottie!

I’ve always thought Lotte is said Law-ta. It’s Scandinavian I think?

The only Lotte I know is Lott-er / Lott-uh (short last syllable)

Lot. I think that’s just me though
linguistically challenged

I'd pronounce that Lotta
Lottie is Lottie ! Why make it confusing...?
I'm considering Lotta for DC 3 if it's a girl...

Lott-ah. As in the German eg Lieselotte.

I’ve known 2 people called Lieselotte and they’ve both been known as Lottie spelt Lotte. One German one Dutch. One old, one young.

I would have said Lot

Lotte pronounced Lott uh
Lottie pronounced Lott ee

I'm Danish and here Lotte is pronounced Lod-deh

I'd pronounce it Lotta, not Lottie.

I’d say Lotte like Lottee and have a friend called Lotte spelt like that. It have never been a problem.

Lotte is french for monkfish. Pronounced like Lot.

'lotte' in German would be pronounced
LOH-tuh.

That's how I'd pronounce it here (in UK) if I saw it.

Lottie would be pronounced LOH-tee

In Danish its Lot-uh.
