Help[Opinions] Sydney?
I met a girl named Sydney today in school and tonight I heard of a Sydney and a Sidney on tv. And this is really bothering me because I can't pronounce it! I know that it's pronouned how it's spelled and I know how it sounds when someone else says it, but I can't say out loud correctly. Anyway, thanks for letting me rant about this! Do you have any names that you just can't say correctly?

How do you pronounce it then?
As Cindy?
Right now the name I can remember is Selma. I want to pronounce it "Semla" (a "semla" is a special bun in Sweden and not a name).

I pronounce it as a cross between Cindy/ SIN-nee, if that makes sense!
