So when I was younger I always thought it was pronounced Mayko, but after replaying Crisis Core they pronounced it Mahko... how did you guys pronounce it?

Mahko, in my country you would say "Mah" to to "Ma" anyway and it is not written with the Katakana "Me-i" but "Ma" so that never was a problem for me personally. When I say "Materia" it sounds more English than the real Japanese pronounciation so I differ it a bit there as it is based on the original word, of course - and I think it just sounds better. Existing words are an exeption anyway. I don't believe anyone says "Bahrett" in English. Funny as it is, the head piece is pronounced like this in Europe, however.

Mahko for sure. It's how I would pronounce it in my main language anyway.

i'm focusing on your image
can you hear me in the void?
Mayko.
In Japan it would be pronounced the latter so that's probably what they intended, but smurf it, I like mayko better.
mayko sound really dumb and you all are dumb for saying it like that

Mayko sounds like a shark. Feel free to tell a shark its name sounds dumb. Try not to lose a hand in the process.
According to shows like The Seeker, "ah" is pronounced "ay" so Kahla is Kayla and Mahko is Mayko.
As for me, I've gone from Mako to Mako to Mako. For the laymen, that's mayko, mahko, and whacko makko. The final transformation is to pronounce it "mucko."
Jack: How do you know?
Will: It's more of a feeling really.
Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?
Will: No.

Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
Huxley: NO!
Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
Huxley: You need to leave, John.
Spartan: But Huxley.
Huxley: Get out!
Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.
By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.
Neither. Assuming the "ah" in "Mah-ko" is pronounced like the "a" in Garden. I guess the closest I can get to how I say it is "Makko" with the "a" being like that in hat.
Mack-o, so Mahko I guess
