How would you pronounce the name "INEZ"? It's a Spanish female name, any help would be gratefully appreciated, especially from any of our Spanish speaking friends...
Cheers guys :D

Something like "eeness" :)
Eye nezz... probably. :unsure:
It`s definately ee-nez.
Si, es verdad!
;)
yep, definitely ee-nez I've known a couple and they were hot. Good name.
It's Ines
I disagree... I've worked with hispanics for three years now and the name Inez sounds more like Ihh-nez
Though its tough to sound it out like that..
pronounce it, "Hey! You!"
Depends on where you're from.Quote:

In Castilian Spanish (used in mainland Spain), which I know a little of, it would be "ee-neth", but in other dialects it is "ee-ness" or even "ee-nez".
ee-neth
With great difficulty
All such as mentioned are used, depending.
The problem could be solved by asking her how she prefers it; people with such names are usually not offended by being asked, as they are more than aware of the dilemma.
Unless you are asking for purposes of christening a child thus, in which case the problem solves itself, yes?
Cheers :D for everyone's help on this, in the end I asked the girl in question how her middle name was pronounced (it was "ee-ness" in this instance but I expect any one of these answers could have been valid...)Quote:

edit:ps my reason for trying to figure out this was a vain attempt to impress this girl by guessing her middle name (she gave me the first and last letters). Yes, I know, I'm very sad....

Not so sad-
If us guys ever told our stories about such things......

You could have asked to be formally introduced by a mutual friend, who was fluent in Spanish, with an accent from the region her parents were raised in.
Couldn't be simpler, you only had to ask.
