It might be the presence of the ph/F-sound that does it for me. Looking at Raphan, trying to figure out how it's pronounced without a frame of reference, my mind goes immediately to names like Raphael or Rafael, Rafa, Rafferty, Rafiq, and the like, and I want to borrow pronunciation cues from them.
