Tanya vs. Tania
pwhodges:
I think she means the two different pronunciations of Sara (Sah-ra) and Sarah (Sair-a) indicated by the h, not that the h is actually sounded.
David_Dovey:
Yeah sorry tania I'm probably gonna always pronounce yr name TAN-ya because saying it with a long "ah" is weird and sounds kind of pretentious to me
JimmyJazz:
Only solution; an all-out war between every Tanya and Tania on Earth
Commence the bloodshed
calenlass:
Titania is pronounced "tih-TAH-nyuh", therefore Tania is "TAH-nyuh", both with rounded A sounds. So, like Russian, I guess.
I know a girl named Lara and her boyfriend can't hear the difference between LAH-ruh and LAW-ruh (Laura) and it drives her crazy. He also probably cannot tell the difference between Sara and Sarah.
I always feel like Katy and Catie and Caty and Kadie and Kady and Cady are weird, and like the last two are misspellings of Caddy, but they are different people and not me and so their name is different and it's got nothing to do with me so whatever. I dunno where the Ds came from, but it's a diminuitive of Kate, which is short for Katherine/Catherine/Kathryn/whatever, so the only people who are actually wrong are the people who think it can be short for Catelin/Katelyn/Caitlin.
pwhodges:
My daughter Catherine uses Kit for short.
And I don't pronounce Titania the same as you either, nor the same as Tania. Sorry 'n all.
