Hey all,

This is merely a suggestion, but one that affects me directly. Could we have a phonetic version of the hosts given name available within our host profiles?


My given name in HPR is "thelovebug", pronounced "the-love-bug".... but espeak pronounces it "theh-luhv-eh-bug"... which isn't quite (read: at all!) as intended. I've noticed there are other hosts whose given name gets totally put through the mincer by espeak (not naming names, but a certain North West England correspondent whose given name is almost a sentence).


Is there enough demand to request that a change is made, or is this simply a case of "suck it up, Dave"?


Thanks all,

Dave
