Well, I've been close. I've always said Koe-nan, accent on the first syllable. I do like Koe n'n and am glad I was a little close. I'd have hated to have to start making him sound like Sean Connery or Arthur Conan Doyle. I do seem to remember D'onofrio as Howard, pronouncing it Koe n'n in the movie. BTW, I haven't been receiving mail from this list for ages. Glad to see it started up again, and with such interesting posts. Alan Glick
