Kyp is not pronounced like either of those. It is pronounced Kip.

Yuuzhan Vong IS pronounced that way.

Jacen is pronounced Jason; like the common name.

Actually, this could be a nifty thread. There's tons of words in Star Wars that I wonder how they're said...

I just don't understand how the hell anyone could get an "Sh" sound out of "X."

That's like pronouncing the name Xanatos (pronounced ZAN-UH-TOSE), SHAN-UH-TOSE.

I just don't get it. wink

To me, it is so clearly "Zee-Zor."

I always called him Shee-zor, because something about Zee-Zor never flows off my tongue properly. It always comes out see-zor...I've always had a tad difficulty making that sound.

Something that's always drived me nuts was Ysanne Isard...how on earth is that first name pronounced?
