I believe it is Luke because of the former UCLA basketball player Luc Richard Umbah Amoute or something like that but i know he pronounced his name LUKE

Don't remind me!

 

[utVOLman]

what about John Brown? that one really confuses me...

 

[bburger991]

Is it Diet-Rich Riley? His first name is kinda confusing.

 

[Lord Vader]

I've been pronouncing it Dee-eh-trick. Probably not right though...

 

[Sabanocchio]

Dye-trick Riley is the way I've heard it pronounced.

 

[utVOLman]

Dye-trick Riley is the way I've heard it pronounced.

pretty sure it would be Dee-trick

 

[Sabanocchio]

pretty sure it would be Dee-trick

That's the way I had been pronouncing it, but I heard it pronounced Die-trick on Rivals on some video. I'll see if I can find it.

 

[TnVolFan14]

pretty sure it would be Dee-trick

That's what I thought,but I've never heard it said.

 

[Sabanocchio]

It is Dee-trick according to this video. Not sure where I heard it pronounced the other way, but I'm sure I did because I had been pronouncing it that way.

Still trying to figure out if this one is sarcasm..?

Sab's name has always seemed obvious. Guess not.

I would have thought so too. You'd be surprised though.

 

[Glutton]

Glutton has been pronounced "glooton" before

What about Corey Lemonier?

I would think it is Luh-mon-yay, but I'm sure the American version is something like Lemon-ear.

Anybody know?
