When you were first reading how did you pronounce the different names?
For some reason when I read Nicci's name I read it as ' Knee see' my dad reads it like ' Nick key' or nikki(short for nicole)
My dads probably right but I just though it was interesting how we thought it differently.
It took me awhile to figure out how I was going to think Kahlan.

I would say ra-l like ra the sun god and l as in love lady loony for Rahl.
Cypher was like cipher. Nicci was Nikki to me.
Kahlan Ka-lan, Ka khan (Sorry Trekkie), and lan like lawn.

That's a weird way to say Nicci. I pronounce them all the same way as Natsu.
Jagang was a weird one to say aloud. Still is. Ja - gang, as it sounds... I usually go by the way the letters are, which is why I find it weird when Kahlan is pronounced as Kay - lan.

I pronounce Nicci the same way as you. I started to think of pronouncing Kahlan the same way as they do in the TV show almost immediately, but my friend pronounced it really weird.

Yay Im not the odd one anymore, lol. 'knee see' sounds cooler for a sorceress anyways, nikki reminds me of a high school girl or something, not deaths mistress, lol.

I pronounce Nicci as Nee-see.
Kahlan like Kah-lan making it ALMOSt sound like Colin.
Zeddicus Zul Zorander... Zedd-i-kus Zoo-l Zor-ann-door. I dont know how to type the "i" like I pronouce it but its the "i" in "it". That would be the short "i" right?
Its been a long time since 2nd grade...
Jagang is Juh-gang.
Mord-Sith rhyming with "Board myth"
Cypher - Sigh-fer
Rahl - R-all
Cara - Kah-ruh (Would the "A" in Ahhhh be the short "a" cause thats what the first "a" is.)
Drefan - Dray-fan
I have yet to even see a hint of the show! I guess I dont get it! *cries miserably*
~*~
Off topic.
Just in case anyone was wondering (as if anyone would) I pronounce Kanaye like Kuh-nay

Taste The Saline Rolling Down Your Cheekbone, Feel Your Heart It Breaks Within Your Chest Now... Also, I always found Darken to be a really, really odd first name.
Seriously. Can you imagine Panis calling his son to the table, like in a normal family dinner setting, with that name?
"Darken, time for supper"
"Darken, will you take out the trash, please?"
"It's a boy! We have a baby boy. I shall name you Darken. Hi, there, baby Darken. Welcome to the world!"
