How would you pronounce Esme?

[copynpaste]

Would you pronounce it Ez-me

Or would you pronounce it Ez-may

Ez-mee

I'd ask the parents first because it's about 50/50 from all the Esme's I've ever taught and sods law would say I got it wrong. 😅

Ez- may

Ez-May

Ezmay because the only one I have known pronounced it that way.

Ez-may

Ezmay

Ez-meee as that’s how it’s spelled and I’ve never heard it spoken

Ez-me because the only one I know pronounces it this way

Ez-May

Its only on MN that I've been aware that people say EZ-ME! 😕

Ez mee

Ez-may

Es-me. I've known two and they both said it this way.

I have an Ess-mee but it invariably gets pronounced Ez-may or as my Cornish fil Ez-mer!

Ez mee because of esme denters!

Ezmay. Known two. Never knew there was variation.

Ez-may

Ez- may

ez may

I would pronounce it Ez-me because I'd only ever seen it in writing and not heard it out loud. But I've learnt from Mumsnet that it's pronounced Ez-may.

Esmeeee ‘Esmeee ,Esmeee!

Ezz-mee, though most seem to be Ess-MAY now. It's ruined a lovely name, in my opinion

Ez-may, it wouldn’t occur to me that it could be pronounced Ez-mee as all the ones I’ve known have pronounced it Ez-may.

Im really not keen on the sound of Ez-mee personally.

Ez-may

Es-May or Ez-May based on the 3 that I know.
