me too lol :)
+NunyJr What is the difference with Rihanna's name? she pronounced it the same "Ri-Anna".
+Richie Bustamante It's Ree-Anne-uh they say ree-Ann-er.
I swear all british people say rihanna correctly. Ive always noticed americans say ree aahn a
Also, is it aahriana grande or arryanna?!
Brionyx She's called herself "Ree-aahn-a" before, she uses the mispronounciation and its correct form interchangeably. She doesn't mind, or even care, if people call her one or the other.
Brionyx It's "Arryanna"
Caribbean people pronounce it correctly also
Brionyx omgggg ikrrr - btw I am British
In Poland you actually pronounce Wasikowska a little bit differently
I can't understand the difference between the correct and uncorrect pronouncing of Rihanna...
They say rih-onn-uh she says rih-ann-uh
+Thabaat Ballali oh well thank you, maybe it's because I'm italian and in my ears they seem the same :)
Quale la differenza?
tbh nemmeno io riesco a sentirla
+Fra Don't mess with beans quella giusta è Rihanna mentre quella sbagliata è Rihona (ma sono fissazioni mentali che solo gli americani si fanno infatti sono quasi uguali)
im surprised Beneficial Cucumberpatch no wait its Boogietoosh Cabbietax is not in this list?
Haha! I just died at this comment.

Nobody pronounces Rihanna's name correctly. I've never heard anyone say her name correctly in my life😂
Come to England, we pronounce it properly
Come to germany :)
Come to Australia, we say it right
Aussies do!!
The Uk say Riannah, but in america its rhianna..
2:41, I took one look at that word and thought "Wazowski".
me too
Wazowski it's a Polish surname too :)
basically most of surnames with ,,owski" is from Poland
***** yeah, but owski is often either
SAME
A girl in my class pronounces Rhianna "Rhy-anna". And she calls herself her number one fan...🙄
well u can’t even spell rihanna so...
@@mia-ci2ur thank you for brining me back to a comment I made 4 years ago, this feels like a mini time capsule
@@taeilhyuckbae LMFAOO
who cares
😂
Saoirse got mispronounced in this one too omgg she's so done.It's SUR-SHA no seersha
But with a name like this you have to expect people mispronouncing it as it looks completely different than what you’d read..
@@GossipGirl770 It is not hard to learn how to say someone's name correctly.
@@gaila.9852 when yiu say something for a long time a specific way and find out it’s something else it is pretty hard
Im also saying this as someone who has to get asked if their name was said the right way every time someone reads it out loud
@@Haha-sz8mk It truly is not. That is an excuse.
most of people call Louis Tomlinson as Lewis ... His friends call him Lewis , his family call him louie , his boy friend call him lou ....
Yeah Larry 😂
Whuuuuu Larry forever
No most people call him Louie
yay larry^^
his boyfriend calls him Boobear
I swear if you just say most of these the way we Brits say them, you'll be fine. Dammit America, no one in the UK says Riharna
exactly what i thought! :)
Pretty sure we're not gonna pronounce them the British way considering we're not British and most of them aren't either 😂
Why would we pronounce it the British way if we aren't British? 😂😂😂
No one in Denmark says "Riharnar"
+Noelle Rose But it's the correct way
I kinda came here in hope of learning how to say Joaquin Phoenix 😂
H-Wa-Keen.
there. (i also mispronounce it; Joe-keen)
Wa-keen fee-nicks (sorry im late)
Rua-keen Finix. The “rrr” is with your throat 😂 not your lips
@@user-qv7hl6jg7m that's the right way
I didn't know it was difficult to say lol
why is she yelling?
@Lamiah Raza *you're
@Lamiah Raza it's you're =you are
cause she's American 😂
Rihanna is actually pronounced Rhi-sexy-AF
😂😂😂

putthanna

Ariana Grande should be on here. It's ARIANA not AIRIANA
Seriously
tbh
People pronounce my name as Ari-arna but it is really Ari-anna
I've never heard anyone say AIRIANA lol I always hear ariana like ari idk just the people I've talked to haha
i no
We’re pronouncing amber heard wrong yall- Its not “Amber” its “Ambuser” Say it right 🗿
Perfection 🤣
This aged well
Charlize Theron is from South-Africa so it's actually pronounced "tron"
Thank you🙌 music to MY ears
really? interesting
I remember when Ariana was new everyone pronounced it Airiana Grand
SAME
I remember when she was a Nickelodeon star...
I still pronounce it like that 😂😅
I was a huge fan of hers since the early Victorious days so I've always said it right✌🏼️
+Cat Grande
I didn't say it wasn't... I said "I remember when she was a Nickelodeon star."
For years I pronounced "Cara Delevingne" like "Cara Da-Veg-a-ling" idk why
Alana Marks I PRONOUNCE IR CARA DE LAVINGE
Alana Marks cara del vinge
Alana Marks Still have no idea how to say her name haha
xVegasAnimagus French, par example

People pronounce my name as De-nice. for fucks sake
Isnt it your name from Key and Peele scene? hahaha
@@kiwousek007 lmao
4:10 - Conan O’Brien cracks me the hell up! I love how he properly properly pronounced Jake, Maggie, and their dad Stephen’s family name: Gyllenhaal, YEE-LUN-HAUL. He’s just leaning in and putting heavily emphasized respect on that. I love it!!
Aaah! I'm from Poland, so I know. You still pronounce Mia's name incorectly!
Ikr, I know it's hard to pronounce, but you can learn it!! It really pisses me off
Can confirm. It's wrong
Yep its still wrong. Its Wasikowska not Wasykowska
She still mispronounced Gyllenhaal after hearing Conan say it too.
But to be fair correct polish pronounciation is so hard!! I try it sometimes with my friend but she just laughs ... And she says no matter how hard i try it always sounds russian
Charlize Theron is originally from South-Africa. She changed how you pronounce her surname when she became famous. Theron is an Afrikaans (one of South Africa's many languages) surname, and it is pronounces TE-RON. Afrikaans is my First language . so i am 100% sure that you pronounces her surname TE-RON. She just changed it when she became famous
Yep, Im a Afrikaans South African and Theron is a VERY common afrikaans surname, what a sjame the video that tells you how to pronounce names got it wrong. haha
I totally agree! Proudly South African as well!
Omg!! FINNALY! She ruined the surename.
yas finally
Yup. She has her own pronunciation.
amanda seyfried..i pronnounce it as..
Amanda Side-Fries..
sorry...
Stitched Cherry Gaming haha
Stitched Cherry Gaming SERIOUSLY? That's not even close!
lol i'm pretty sure they're joking.
TEAM SABIGAIL
/r/woooosh
Just Random Life Omg, its a joke. Calm down.
> Teaches people how to pronounce Wasikowska
> pronounces it wrong xD
It's Vah-she-kov-skah. The second syllable should be very soft, certainly not a "see".
She also pronounces Gyllenhaal wrong.
true, but the rest was pretty much spot-on
@@escaperel it was a joke
@@sidolanters1394 Joke from you or from them? =) it was all wrong anyway if you want to it the Swedish way
It's funny for us Irish people to see people think that Saoirse is a strange name... 😂
That's what I was thinking😁 its funny because I know so many people called saoirse that it seems strange to me that anyone would mispronounce it!😂
saoirse wow wtf is that
Haha Yeah
haha yeah I was thinking the same :)
Its like people and the name Niamh (Nev). They always say Niam
My names sydney and even when people clearly see it written like teachers they call me cindy
lol wtf😂 i had a friend named sydney ,i love that name✌
It's the opposite for my sister. Her name is Cindy but gets called Sydney.
Same but mainly it's the new kids who have never met me.
I totally get you. I get Cindy all of the time and
sometimes they spell it Sidnie
+Sydney M My sister gets it spelled, if it's not Sydney, the Cyndi sometimes.
Rihanna is an Arabic name. So you actually pronounce it totally differently if you want to pronounce it the right way.

Asha Nimo Umm I think its a joke
Saoirse sounds like a damn seasoning or salad dressing. "Add a pinch of 'Saoirse' or a drizzle of 'Saoirse'." 😂😂
Too bad Rihanna's real

Her middle name is Rihanna.
Her name is Robyn Rihanna Fenty
So Rihanna is her real name.

Good, now I just need to know how to pronounce Matthias Schoenaerts.
+PalmurcioWorld Is it pronounced like Matthias Scönärts?
sleds ocñv
Lovise M I don't know, maybe. But I don't know how to pronnouce that ö xD
PalmurcioWorld Okay :) I know because I'm from Norway and we have a letter here that is basically the same; the Ø. And I know a little German (pronunciation)
Lovise M Oh! I know German too! The ö is pronnonced the same way in french?
uvuvwevwevwe onyetenyevwe ugwemubwem ossas
vitoldas lizas
That Nigerian is something else.
I through it was just a joke.
Wasikowska was mispronounced here. It's more in the vein of "Va-Shee-Kov-Ska"
Apparently Taylor Lautner's name is said Lowt-ner not Lawt-ner. So few people know this that even this list missed it.
Not Under Age I Swear wait really? i had no idea lol
The Rhianna one is stupid, that's just the difference of how the "a" is pronounced in British and American English. Just like any other word involving the letter "a", like "and", "class", "can" and many more. And for those who's name isn't pronounced as it's spelt, it's not other people's fault for mispronouncing it, it's your fault for not adjusting the pronunciation to the language of your country (e.g. if you were born and grew up in USA don't pronounce your name the French way?) or your fault for not going back to live in the country where the origin of that pronunciation is from (i.e. if you want it pronounced the proper French way go live in France).
Your comment is an homage to stupidity.
Demi Ladipo-Eki So people are expected to know the pronunciation of a name in all languages/accents? Learn something new everyday.
+Mirokism There is nothing wrong in learning new information everyday.
+Bell Gustafsson I didn't say the words are pronounced differently, I said British and Americans pronounce the letter A in words differently, therefore making words such as "and" and "can" sound slightly different due to the accent, which is exactly the case with Rhianna's name. See how British and Americans pronounce the word "aunt" and you'll see what I mean.
+Mirokism You're right it is our own faults because we all get to choose our own name.
The “how to pronounce” joke in Young Frankenstein - German names you should pronounce the second vowel. Think of a stein of beer.
But with composer/conductors Elmer Bernstein (Hollywood) and Leonard Bernstein (New York), Elmer pronounced his name "BERN-steen", and Leonard used "BERN-styne". They were not related.
Very informative. Thank you 💞😊
I've always pronounced rihanna's name that way (I'm british)
same and I'm dutch
Same
LOL im british too
same and I am Swiss
Same I'm British
shia labeouf should've been on here bc I have litteraly no idea how to pronounce his name
It's French....just go to google...beouf is the french word for beef...his name is only spelled a bit differently but as far as I know pronounced the same;)))
Shy-ah-la-buff
+ViviliciousLady FRENCH for beef is BOEUF, Beouf is a mispelling that has happend in canada or maybe in louisiana whithin the cajun people
+ViviliciousLady So Chiaseed the Beef. Got it.
+JOSE LUIS MARTÍNEZ RODRÍGUEZ Lol I'm Canadian and it's not Beouf
Anna (ah nah) and Anna (ann uh) are the same. It depends where you're from
Anna from frozen is pronounced annuh to some people
It all depends on where you're from...
I'm certain Charlize has just learned to be satisfied with that pronunciation. It's an Afrikaans surname that is actually pronounced similar to the name of the movie Tron.
What does it actually mean in Afrikaans? It's literally the Greek word for "hunter"
Sometimes one's surname is pronounced differently. Take mine for instance. Unlike most, my surname is pronounced with a long A, so it's AY-run, not ERR- un.
How did Jake end up with that last name? I'm from Sweden but I have never met anyone actually called Gyllenhaal. And it has a very old swedish spelling to it, nothing that would be used in modern swedish. So I looked it up and it turns out that yes, it is an old Swedish last name from a noble Swedish family.... So how did he get it? Anybody that knows?
+Katia not very likely.
Katia Really? Well, I said not very likely but not impossible. So maybe you're right. I'll try to look it up!
+James Sarvan i allways thought his name is pronounced GyllenHEART lol
Samee
Because he descends from Swedish nobility
the voice if the speaker is annoying af
I don't know the difference in Rihanna name 😂😂
Memi Ed the one she prefers is Reee-anna like you would pronounce Remember and how most Americans pronounce it as Ry-anna like you would pronounce Ryan.
No, most people say "Ree-ahna" (like the girl from Frozen.) Personally though, I think if her mother pronounces it "Ree-ahna" and not "Ree-anna" (what the video is saying is the correct pronunciation,) then her mother is correct. I'm sure she would know better than a random YT channel.
LexiColey MUA, Rihanna literally says that her name is pronounced "Re-anna."
It’s “Ann”, not “Onn”
Rihanna says she doent care people mispronounce her name wrong. Anyways they both sound so similar to each other only Rihanna herself would hear the slight difference.
in an screen test/interview by Lynn Hirshberg for W Magazine the video starts with mia actually saying her last name, which is pronounced 'VAH-SHE-KOVSKA''. Not vah-she-kahv-skuh.
i heard rihanna being pronounced the same, WHATS THE DIFFERENCE?
the a
+Sol Reategui REE-AH-NA or REE-AN-NA
+johnNYgoesLA REE-ANNA
+Sol Reategui Just like my name is pronounced Jew-Lee-An-Uh. It' be Jew-Lee-On-Uh if my name only had one N in it but I have two. Most of the time it depends on where you're from though. I rarely run into people who say my name correctly.
+Julianna Harrell OMG WE HAVE THE SAME NAME... SPELT THE SAME AND EVERYTHING!!! I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYONE ELSE WITH THIS NAME BEFORE.
My one is pronounced anna and not arna though.
The only names on this list that I didn't know how to pronounce were Quvenzhane, Wasikowska, and Gyllenhaal. In Britain we all naturally pronounce the other names the way they said is right. And I'm Northern Irish so Saoirse is a given.
P.s. Saoirse (with an i) is seer-sha and Saorse (without an i) is sore-sha.
oh, girl, that voice, hurts
Totally understand this I just use Stephanie my name is Estefania
I'm from Poland and you still got Mia's name wrong xD
oke
so how it is pronounced?
It's really hard to pronounce this if you're not from Poland. I really don't know how to explain you this. The best way is to go on google translate, enter "Wasikowski", find polish and listen it :)
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂 And I am South African and we never say Theron...the Th is silent and we say it as Te-Ron. Not sure why she says her name like that there
My name's Conchobar pronounced Connor
same
+love hearts hi phandom member
HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA directioner stuff
OMG CHONCOBAR
Directionerrrr
Gyllenhaal (Gyllenhål)= golden hole. such a strange name
The originally German surnames can be pronounced the German way (the way Amanda Seyfried's sister does is kinda German) or the American English way. Both are correct which makes it easier. But I as a German am always struggling how to pronounce German names when I speak English or Spanish.
When I pronounce it correctly people mostly don't understand, but I don't really like saying these words with false pronunciation..
What about Sasha Pieterse? Her last name is literally impossible to pronounce correctly!
***** Oh, I see, thank you for letting me know, pretty interesting name you have! :)
***** I´m German and its not difficult for me too :D
Annemie du Randt Charlise Theron's surname is FRENCH in derivation.
I'm german but I don't think Kock is german
Ava Summers If it were German it would be "Koch".
Since when the fuck is Rhianna's name Rheanna?! I've said Rhianna my whole life.
Apparently since forever lmfao
I've always said it like Rhe- Awna.
+Chestney Chiller I've heard her pronounce her own name both ways. She probably just goes with the flow, but in her mind thinking, it's REE ANNA.
It's always been Rihanna. REE ANNE UH.
Rihanna* (Ree-anne-ah)
What about Shia Labeouf? Did I even spell it right? Is it pronounced "Shy-uh Luh-boff"? Is it French? What about Cara Delivingne? so many questions need answered!
Shia's dad is cajun and Labeouf is a mispelled version of the French name "Le Bœuf". You can have the pronunciation of the names on wikipedia ;-)
*Cara Delevingne*. Her last name is pronounces as de-le-veeen
loved watching Quvenzhane on Annie!
Screw it i don't even know how to pronounce my last name
That's pretty bad :/
Miku Hatsune Piano Piano? PE-an-oh.
In reality,even Charlize said her last name wrong. It's Tron not Theron.
Juli Yeah I watched that clip too and she said it right. I wish people (all of them) would pronounce the names and surnames correctly,not "americanize" it...
It's not thron either. It's Teron. The H is silent. A boksburg chick who forgot her own roots.
Yeah. Basically it's "Tron".
Ahhh, no. It's not Tron. She Isent a robot. It's Te-Ron. The H is silent, you still pronounce the e.
From what I heard on the interview with Peers Morgan she said Tron. But anyway, afrikaans is not how people pronounce her name. One way or another. Let' not get into arguing because of someone's surname.
There was a kid in my class who’s name started with a W who came from Poland and we thought his name was Wiktor for 7 months.
ThatFuzzyNarwhal 😂💀
😁😁😁
I though a long time ago this was how you pronounced Hasley hay-sa-ley but I knew how to pronounce Halsey when I watched a interview they said it like this hall-sley
Amanda Seyfried pronounces wrong her own name. She has German ancestors. Seyfried (Seifried) is a common German name. It's a variant form of the forename Siegfried and the "ie" in "fried" is a long German iiiiiiiiiiiiiiii (in English a long eeeee)
Long eeeeeeeee but yeah
isabeau lewis
Haha, that's the difference between German and English. Germans pronounce an i like an English e. And the technical term for "ie" is "long i". Therefore iiiiiiiiiiiiii. :)
***** oops, that's what i meant, sorry. I just wanted to clarify it for the english people (i'm canadian but i speak german) but yeah, i get what you're saying because german i is pronounced like english e :)
isabeau lewis
Ohhh yes right..now I understand! I forgot that English people don't understand what I mean with a long iiii. :)
***** that's okay :)
americans mispronounce even the simple ones like selena gomez and jennifer lopez. its Go-mez not Gow-mez and lo-pez not lowpez
Princess R You do realize that lowpez and lo-pez are the same, right? Same for Go-mez and Gowmez
Princess R literally never in my life have i heard ANYONE say gow-mez or low-pez
Princess R uhhh yeah far and few people pronounce it that way idk what you're talking about
Princess R You probably wanted to say the proper pronunciation is Gaw-mez and Law-pez.
blinski1 Actually I think it is Go-mez because it's how spanish and latin countries pronouce it. But I am not 100% sure.
1:19 - Thank you, Quvenzhane!
in irish AOI is usually pronounced as EE. Like in the name Aoife
Im from the UK and I say Rhianna the right way.
Ditto
+A Gay Talking Cat what does that nean
I mean mean
***** dont say that to me please. I get 10 out of 10 in spelling tests at primary school.So yeah, I can spell it it's just auto correct
+Tia Scarlett Trinder
Lmao you sound like a stuck up 11 year old idiot.
what about Jade Thirlwall and Lauren jauregui? HAHAHA
Jade Thirlwall is not really confusing...perhaps many people just forget to pronounce the l in her last name
And Camila cabello
+Brittany Burke also its not ca-mill-ah its ca-mee-la and its not ca-be-llo it's ca-be-yo
+Brittany Burke also its not ca-mill-ah its ca-mee-la and its not ca-be-llo it's ca-be-yo
+maddie woah are you serious... shit
i relate to this video title at the highest possible level
Amanda Sigfreid plays in TED2!
I've been pronouncing Charlize's name correctly, yesss! What about Cara Dev...? Idk how to pronounce it so I just say "Devilini". 😆
I know I'm totally off, btw.
It's Deleveen
De-le-veen 😊
+Sara Acer ça se prononce cara de Lavigne ça sonne French
+Sara Acer not vain! Veen, Cara deh-luh-veen
lol lots of people are like "omg i cant pronounce your name, do you have a nickname?" um... if you can pronounce supercalifragilisticexpialadocious, you can pronounce names/terms other than traditional Eurocentric American names.
I just saw this as I was looking for mispronounced names and will use your example- my name is Maroulio and I do not have or want a nickname.
"...like boyfriends, and bosses, and even her own mother!"
ermmmm, isn't your mother the person who names you and thus the person who gets to decide the correct pronunciation of said name?
Kate Smorenburg that's what I said! Like hellooo!!
Unless the mom did not name her.
I think “Rihanna” is her stage name. That’s not her real name. That’s why her mother can’t pronouce it correctly.
@@ma.karenqueenoccianas9506 Nope it's Robyn Rihanna Fenty.
(Unsure if anyone else already said it)- it’s saoirse like INTERTIA. she says it in an interview with Steven Colbert. Not seer-sha. Sir-sha.
I think my first name is pretty simple but have had few people say it correctly without me having to correct them or tell them how to pronounce it. It's Mexican/Italian. (Ma'-re-sell-a) I've had people say "Can I just call you Marcy" and I'm like I guess, although I hate that name. When I was little I used to come home and cry to my mom cuz kids would mispronounce my name lol I'm 20 now and I still struggle with trying to get my name across correctly.
AnnWuvsCupcakez :D Awh thank you! What's your name?
Same! My family is from Puerto Rico and my name is Kathyria Collazo. You don't pronounce the H. Kah-ti-rri-ah. Co-jah-so. Simple? No. Lmao
I thought Marcela was pronounced (mar-ee-cell-ah)
Maricela* not what I previously typed
Maricela Hernandez I would have asked to call you Mari if I had troubles. Nonetheless, you'd still have to remind me about the 're' part cause I would have said Marcella.
When I told my mom about how we've been pronouncing Jake Gyllenhaal's name all wrong and that it's Sweedish and it's really Jake Yeelenhall she asked, "Then wouldn't his name be Yake Yeelenhall?" Now I'm not sure if it would be Yake Yeelenhall.
i know how they feel lol, no one has ever pronounced my last name right at first, teachers, best friends, family members...haha, it takes them a while to get it
Now I have heard Jake Gyllenhaal's sister pronounce her name as Jill En Hall. I assumed his too, would be G like J but they are saying what Y. Yeel En Hall? And did you know, Ralph Fiennes' name is pronounced Rafe Fines. Just learned that one.
Kwuhvenzhuhnay beautiful name for a beautiful girl 💗
it's quvenzhané ffs
+sawyers ?
idiot.
+sawyers YWC
cj bathan bitch that's ain't her name. who asked you doe, fuck off
I've always said those names differently. Thanks for clearing it up Clevver news!
There are loads of Saoirse's where I live so I thought growing up that it's as common as my own name
I literally watched The Lovely Bones from 3 to 5 am today xD it was really good.
Oh. Rihanna pronounces her name like mine. I'm Rhianna.
+Anna McCloud People mispronounce my name all the time too
+Anna McCloud Your name is Anna like mine not Rhianna
Anna Engel Wrong! I just changed it for TH-cam because I didn't want my friends to know who I was. My name is Rhianna. And it is pronounced the same as the popstar, unfortunately. But don't worry, I was born long before she was famous XD
+Anna McCloud Oh sorry
That's definitely NOT how you pronounce "Wasikowska" :)
Ikr
Moriah !!¡ oh hello fellow kpooper and ARMY do you mind me asking who ur BTS bias is and the groups you like 😊😊
Moriah !!¡ I literally like all the groups you mentioned 😂😂
miałam to napisać 😂
yep she say it wrong
"From this point on, I will only refer to Jake as Jake YEE LEN HALL"😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
and no one ever believed me that Jake Gyllenhall is pronounced like that
I used to always pronounce rihannas name properly until I heard Americans pronouncing it the way they do and assumed I had been saying it wrong and switched to the american way. Now I know the original way I said it was right all along but Its so hard to switch back now
I don't understand how people get Cindy from Sydney. It makes me so angry when people do this
Some ppl spell it cidny so they might be used to pronouncing the name like that
Lupita Nyongo...ppl always get it wrong
04:17 thats danish pronounciation though. And 'Gyllenhaal' is probably more norwegian, or perhaps super old swedish. We do not have double a:s in Swedish.
Stellan and Alexander Skargård should be on this list... No American can't say it correctly
I heard Mia saying her last name's pronunciation is "Wa-shi-ko-wska" and i learned to pronounce it like that (still, she said that is english pronunciation because in Polish they say "Wa-si-ko-wska)
yes, I'm Polish and we say Wasikowska :) I was suprised when I found out how American say name of Polish Nobel price winner Lech Wałęsa. It was "Lek Wolenza" and I didn't understand it. It should be V A Ł (it sounds like "w" when you say way) Ę (it sounds like "eng" when you say lenght) S (like sign) A :D Not easy to say ;)
'Neil horaan' said hello 😂
Ahahaa that pronounciation of Gyllenhaal though!😂 "GIIIELENHAAAL" 😂 Sound Danish to me, not swedish😂
