I'm curious about how other people say her name. I've heard multiple ways.
I say it (english pronunciation, not japanese) Kie (like pie)- me - ay
I've also heard ca - me , and kie - me
I'm the only one i know that says the "ie" part as ee-aa
How does everyone else say it?
I say Kai(high) Me (She)
uh
Cam-E
thats how i say it
Well, according to the katakana spelling it should sound like Keimi, so that's how I say it. Don't know about everyone else. I do kind of like the Camie spelling though.
I kinda know it should be ke-i-mi, yet I say ca (like in arm)-mi. I will try to change my spelling stuff after I hear her name in anime or see Oda write in in English.
i say it kai meh
I just say it like Cam-E.
I pronounce it as Cam-E.
Kai-Me is how I pronounce it.
I say it "Kei - mi"
I say it "Cam-E".
Much better question: How the hell do you say "Rayleigh"?
"By the Hoary Hosts of Hoggoth!"
It is said Ray - lee
Like others have said Cam E
I pronounce Rayleigh ri lee
I pronounce it Cammy (like the streetfighter character) i know it's wrong but i find it easier to say in normal speech.
Then again, this is coming from someone who pronounced moria as moy-ra for about 3 months…
Unlucky we probably won't get it spoken on the anime till next year.
The correct pronounciation (according to katakana) is Kay (like in "okay") - Mee (like in "me")
I say Rayleigh like "Ray-Lay". That's probably totally wrong, though :unsure:
^That's how I say it as well.
And for Caimie, I say "Key-Mee" which is likely wrong.
Ha I also say "cammy" for the sake of simplicity. But I am aware that its wrong so its not like I'll dispute the actual name of her character.
"Kai-may" for me.
I say it "Ray-Lie".
It is said Ray - lee
Like others have said Cam E
I pronounce Rayleigh ri lee
I say it "Ray-Lie".
normally the sound for "eigh" and the sound for "ay" are said the same as the letter "A" is pronounced. For instance "weigh" and "way" are said the same way. So it seems like Ray-Lay should be the correct pronunciation.
Actually I know a girl whose name is Leigh and it's pronounced Lee, but idk. What does the katakana say? That's probably what we should go with.
Edit:There's also a street in my town called Rayliegh Drive and it's pronounced Ray-lee.
The katakana says レイりー the reading for the characters is reirii. So it should be said RayLee (I personally like this romanization better, Rayleigh just doesn't seem masculine enough for me) in English.
Kami and Raileigh, sue me.

All I'm doing is going off my knowledge of english and Stephen's translations which spell it "Rayleigh" not "Rayliegh".

Watch us be right - then we can walk around stickin' our tongues out at everyone… ahh the dream ...
anyway - rayliegh i pronounce as Rally, as in the race.
And Moria's (moy-ra, haa haa, makes me chuckle cause all i can think of is the woman from the xmen now) a Shi-buck-aye
I say Cam-e
I also say shachibooki
Cam-E is also how i prounounce her name. Rayleigh, i just thought that you pronounce the same way as Ralegh in NC. So Ra-Lee is how i say it.
As the Katakana is written, I read as such.
Kay-Me
Ray-Lee
I've always read it as..
Cam-E
Ray-Lee
I pronounce it Cam-e
It's easier that way

Ka-me-ha-me-ha…. Sorry, couldn't resist.
Ka-mi. I actually have a Chinese resturant near me named "Kami". They have the best crab ragoons.

That's how I've been pronouncing it.
oh and i also say Rayleigh , Ray lay. Just sounds cooler. i guess we'll find out sooner or later though ne?
I say 'kei-mee' and 'ray-lee' following how they're written in katakana.
Kay-me, Ray-lee
Loo-fee

For people who want to hear how Rayleigh is pronounced.
Caimie: Cam-E (a lot of that is the fact that up until this thread i never realised there was an i in between the a and m).
Ray-Lee (that's how the English pronounce it).
The correct pronounciation (according to katakana) is Kay (like in "okay") - Mee (like in "me")
That's how I say it too… Or, not really, as I've never actually said it out loud, but that's how I imagine the characters saying it.
As for Rayleigh, I imagine it as "Ray-lay". Propably wrong though...
I pronounce:
Caimie: Cam-E
Rayleigh: Ray-Lay
Caimie: Cam-Ee
Rayleigh: Ray-Lay
@Gecko:
Caimie: Cam-Ee
Rayleigh: Ray-Lay
High Five:w00t:
Yeah I was just going to quote you but I noticed you used Cam-E instead of Cam-Ee so yeah.
Lol…How the heck do you even pronounce Ee?
Uh… like in Zoey?
I guess it's the same as just E though. Whatever
I say the first as "Keimi," which I'm pretty sure is the correct romanization. Like "Katie" with an 'M.'
I pronounce Rayleigh "Ray-lay," too.
The "correct" pronunciation for Caimie is "naive, bra-burning renegade mermaid with a tendency to get caught unawares." [/silliness]
I'm not trying to be a jerk or start a fight, but I noticed a lot of you have a "I'll wait and see" attitude about how the names are pronounced. First, I'm wondering what you are waiting for (the anime perhaps)? Second, you've already been told several times in the thread how to pronounce these names. And you still choose to pronounce them wrong?! It would be like you meet a guy named Dan, but choose to call him Don because it's easier, or you're used to it.
ケイミー is romanized Keimii (read as Kay me)
レイリー is romanized Reirii (read as Ray Lee)
So you guys really have nothing to wait for! Stop mispronouncing their names!
I'm sorry if this came off as too harsh, but this is a big pet peeve of mine.
母しゃべる「ドッグチーズ」
レイリー is romanized Reirii (read as Ray Lee)
Ah, okay. That one, I'd never had the katakana laid out for me or anything. Now I know.
how to say my name: Darks, NOT Dar X, Dar X sounds retarded
