I was just recently told that NDRU is meant to be pronounced "Andrew". I should have figured that one out myself, but instead I've been thinking of it simply as N - D - R - U.

doh!


I kind of meant that to happen, apparently it worked.

This is a great question. Even though I know how many are pronounced, I still have an impression in my mind that is wrong.

re-TEE-na

IM a go

Jerseykers

Carrie mipples

Muse into pharaoh

Dance Wine

Sauce gemini

I read it right in terms of pronunciation, but I did think it had something to do with cyborgs. It's your name, though, right?
