Name Pronunciation

All about name pronunciation. Is there a proper pronunciation of a name or is it relative? Jennifer and Mallory talk about how pronunciation can be geographic and ethnographic, and how mispronuncing names can be egregious and a form of aggression. We also read name stories from our fans on Reddit and Facebook, report on the current celebrity baby news and take letters from our listeners. Names mentioned in this episode: Lupine, Zennifer, Megan, Dana, Miranda, Jaime, Lana, Cecily, Maisie, and more! Do you have a question for Jennifer and Mallory? Email us at [email protected]. Join us and other listeners in our Facebook group to talk about this episode and anything about names and naming. And follow us on our popular TikTok channel for name funnies and viral vids! The Baby Names Podcast is a production of BabyNames.com.
