The OcUK Username Pronunciation Thread

[iCraig]

Ever read a post from a user and read their name out aloud, unsure of whether that is correct way of saying it or not?

Now it's time to find out. Ask your general collective, and the user in question, and find out whether you've been saying it right, or if you've been using an "apple in your mouth" version.

Pronounce away!

I always used to think it was Hayley up until about a year ago :/

I'm guessing there are a lot of people who think it is.

Death to the forum then!

Wow, I was way off.

 

[Haly]

I really don't get how people pronounce it like that but I guess that's because I know it comes from Halcyon (in an extremely roundabout/typofied way) so it'd sound even sillier if it was Hayleycon

 

[Creature]

So do you pronounce it oct-a-gon then?

Ot-a-con, oct-a-gon, oc-tag-on-al one, triangle boy, anything really.

Now you see, when I first joined I presumed it was pronounced as "hayley", and your real name was similar.

Guess I'm going to die.

My real name is nothing like Hayley And I'd really hate to be called Hayley as my real name, no offence on anyone called that.
