Is it REE GAN or RAY GAN?

 

[Tonks]

Ray-gan (not a emphasis on the a in gan though. Sometimes rhymes with kin)

Like the US President

 

[Caitlyns Mummy x]

Ah.. I like ree-gan?

 

[Tonks]

Kinda like calling Cait-lyn Cat-lyn though

 

[Caitlyns Mummy x]

People DO call Caitlyn, Catlyn and Caitlan... The worst has been cake tin though by far........

 

[Mervs Mum]

I know a Regan and it's pronounced ree-gan

 

[Caitlyns Mummy x]

See I thought Regan was Ree-gan and Raegan was Ray-gan...

 

[Mervs Mum]

I expect some of it will be down to local dialect and interpretations.

 

[Me, My Girls & I]

i always thought it was ree-gan too!!

this thread's just reminded me, my mum was talking to a friend of hers the other day, who's a gp. and she says "my niece has a baby called nee-amh!" i thought a doctor would know how to pronounce niamh!! especially when its her flesh and blood!!

 

[Tonks]

Maybe it's because I grew up in America

Alice, that's funny! Unless the Mum read it online, and thought that was how it was pronouced!
