When I was little I prononced Siobhan "Syb - o- han" When in doubt go with phonetics (until you find out its embaressingly wrong...)

One thing that baffles me, no offense, is how people miss pronounce Renesmee because on pg. 327 of BD(these are the exact words out of the book) it says:

Bella wiped the back of her hand under her wet eyes. "I kicked a few things around. Playing with Renee and Esme I was thinking . . . Ruh-nez-may."
"Ruhnezmay"
"R-e-n-e-s-m-e-e. Too Weird?"

Yeah, to me Renesme is really easy to pronounced and it is spelled right. ^-^

Siobhann usually pronounced Shiv-awn, sometimes it can be said Sha-vuan, bt run them together as if its almost one sylabyll. Pretty name :)
