These questions always seem to rise anew

Luc would be as the french name Luc
Guillaume is also french (in english it's apparently William) ... it's like Gyome (the L aren't pronounced as L)

*nods* I've always pronounce Guillame's name like that. I think Geddoe's name is pronounced like "ghetto", but with 'd' instead of 't'.

How about Shiba? I pronouce it "SHEE-bah" but you could say "shih-bah". Dupa? Alanis? Those I think are the most confusing.

Alanis is a somewhat common name nowadays too isn't it? Alanis Moresette or however thats spelt. That freaky singer chick.

Geddoe is simply ged-doe. Problem is I always thought it was the "G" sound as in Giraffe not Gorilla, even though it can really be either one.

I've alway pronounced Geddoe's name as "Jed-doe" as well.

As for Guilluame, the French pronounciation would sound exactlylike "William", except replace the "W" with a "G".

Hahaha, I actually been pronouncing it "Ged-doe" as in Gorilla.

On a side note though, how do you guys pronounce Suikoden. I've heard hundreds of different pronounciations so far it is getting pathetic.
