Saaaame.
I don't mean to be rude, not at all especially since I know some CBers just don't have the hang of spelling, by my name is spelled "Clouded Leopard". It's not Leapard, Leopord, Leapord, or Lepard. Thank you! :)
(November 11, 2016 - 4:21 pm)
Heh. Yeah, for a while I think I was calling you Clouded Leapard. :/
I mispronounce some people's names, though. Like, I know that Mei-xue's name is pronounced May-shreh. But I always pronounce it Mee-kzee, because that's how I've been pronouncing it since I came on.
And I know that Esthelle's name is pronounced Es-thel-ay, but I pronounce it Es-thell for the same reason stated above.
(November 12, 2016 - 2:29 pm)
I say Esthelle Es-thell as well! But I say Mei-xue "May-ex-oo" for some reason.
(November 12, 2016 - 7:26 pm)
Me too! I say it like May-xsoo.
(November 13, 2016 - 12:32 pm)
Similarly, I say May-Sue in my head :)

I think I've just seen the pronounciations they put in their Location field so often that my brain will pronounce it that way, like "May-shreh" and "Es-thelle-ay". Oddly enough, though, I can't see Scylla's name said any other way than "Sky-la".
(November 18, 2016 - 3:42 pm)
Same! I guess I sort of ignored the real pernunc--pernounc--per---GAH MY SPELLING IS BROKEN.
For Mei-Xue, I would say it:
Mei-Zoo
For Esthelle--
Est-L
And I called her that because I didn't know how leapord--oops, I forgot how to spell it again.

And I am Booksy Owly, not Booksy Owl. :) Just letting you guys know. And I'll keep that in mind, Brookeira! May I call you Brooke?
(November 12, 2016 - 4:17 pm)
OHHHHH! Wait, really? I'm sorry, Booksy Owly, I'm pretty sure I've been calling you Booksy Owl for a while! Sorry!
(November 12, 2016 - 8:19 pm)
Totally fine, I just wanted to let you guys know. A lot of people do that.
(November 12, 2016 - 10:43 pm)
...Once, someone called me Miceandrice. XD
(November 12, 2016 - 4:59 pm)
"Miceandrice"
Oh gosh haha.
I usually don't misspell names, but tend to mispronounce them. For instance, I pronounce Mei-xue as "may-zhoo." I read Esthelle as "es-thell-lay"
(November 12, 2016 - 8:11 pm)
I'm sorry for however many times I've spelt it wrong... I get confsed easily :)
(November 12, 2016 - 9:54 pm)
It's OK, to everyone who spelled it wrong.
And yes, you may call me Brooke.
In other news, have you guys seen Doctor Strange? It's stunning.
(November 12, 2016 - 10:42 pm)
Yes! Did you stay to the very end of the credits? Dr Strange made me even more excited for Thor Ragnarok, and Avengers: Infinity War, which I wasn't sure was possible. (The Cloak of Levitation was definitely my favorite charrie.)
