Depends somewhat on the country of origin; the two that we know pronounce is Lafe.

|
Today I'm just a big slump-shouldered ~:>.
I've been plucked 3-4 times today. And not in the good sense of the word. ;) |
Jibboo.
It's lafe. It's also pronunciation as opposed to pronounciation. (I always find such irony in people's saying that word incorrectly. I guess I need to worry about more important things...) |
It's a name. It's pronounce how the person with the name or perhaps their parents dediced to pronounce it. (Ex. Mueller - pronounced Mil-ler or Mue-ler)
|
Leif, as in Leif Eiriksson, is pronounced ?leaf.?
