how do you pronounce Luc..is it "luck" or "luke"?
also how do you pronounce geddoe? i always pronounced it,"jeddoh"and i'm pretty sure that's wrong

i'm not so sure if this belongs here or in character questions, could someone move if it doesn't beong here

Luc is pronounced as "Luke".

I'm not entirely sure about Geddoe.

Guillaume i think is pronounced as Gilome.

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.
