    I currently wonder how your name should be pronounced.

    I want to say its 'Jeye-mez'.

    Another possobility is 'J-eyemz'.

    A slightly less likely option could be 'jim-ez'.

    Really Locky is the only one to come up with an extra S sound.

    The almost double S sound of me noodle boy is trying to sound out the oddity of 'sz' and wondering if perhaps they should be pronounced together or separately.

    Hello jimezs (which I shall pronounce "jim" from now on.)

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    I'm going to go Spanish, and pretend it's a shortened version of Jiminez.


    So, "He-mez"

    It's not like there's any words that ever end in 'zs', so how would you know it's not supposed to be pronounced as two separate sounds?
