How many of you can pronounce this?

[MommyGrim]

Daenerys?

I absolutely LOVE it for a first name but my mom is worried no one will be able to look at it and pronounce it. I really want to keep the spelling how it is meant to be but I don't want it to be difficult for LO when they get older.

So I wanted to see if any of you could pronounce it correctly. My mom thinks I'm bias since I know how it's pronounced.

Kind of like Dan-air-is? It's the name of a character from the Game of Thrones books/TV series.

 

[Lucy139]

Day-ne-ris?? That's a guess don't have a clue lol x

 

[MommyGrim]

Day-ne-ris?? That's a guess don't have a clue lol x

That's what I'm afraid of...>.< I may have to change the spelling...

 

[wannabemomy37]

Duh-Nair-Iss?

 

[MariposaTam]

Yeah... Sorry I can't say it either!

 

[JJKCB]

Dan-air-ez is how i would pronounce it

 

[MommyGrim]

Duh-Nair-Iss?

That's how we pronounce it, so that makes me feel a bit better!

 

[steph.]

Deh-neh-ris?

 

[MommyGrim]

What if I left the E out?

Does Danerys look like it's pronounced 'duh-nair-ez'?

 

[MariposaTam]

I think that's a bit better- though you might still run into D A as in apple nair-ez or run into is versus ez, but I think that its a little harder to mess up/easier to correct with the 2nd spelling.

Hope I made sense!

 

[MommyGrim]

No, I understand exactly what you mean. That does make a lot of sense.

 

[GoldieLocs]

Day-ne-ris?? That's a guess don't have a clue lol x

This..

Dan-er-us? Sorry but I absolutely had no idea how to say that. If you love it though I'd keep it, the people you matter will know how to pronounce it, or you could change the spelling.

 

[discoclare]

Dan-ear-is would be my guess

 

[juicyfruity]

i cant pronounce it can you explain? Danerys i would figure out to be da-nair-is
is that right? once you've told me though i would remember and it would be all good! i love the way Danerys looks and i like it pronounced is or iss! its so prettyyyyy

ok um it is a girl or boy name because i imagining it on a girly!

 

[onetwothreebp]

I would pronounce it Da-nair-ee-us.

 

[sandflower]

It looks like it's pronounced like the words Duh-near-us to me. I like the original spelling--looks pretty.
