Back to the pronunciation thread.

How do YOU pronounce - Olympe Maxime?


Olympe -

oh-lim-pee
oh-limp
oh-lie-ump
oh-lie-um-pee

Maxime -

macks-eem
macks-im-ee
macks-im-ay
macks-eye-um
macks-eye-um-ee (or macks-eye-me)

For me it's always been -

Oh-lim-pee Macks-eem

I've always found French pronunciations to be a little odd. How
'bourgeoisie' (bore-geo-issy) ever became boo-zhwa-zee, I will never
understand. But then, that's French.

Any opinions on Madam Maxime's name?
