HelpRe: Jacinth
in reply to a message by Billina
How are you planning on pronouncing it? JAY-sinth sounds too much like Jason for my tastes. I prefer JAS-inth though it's harsher. Regardless I have trouble seeing Jacinth as a female name. One of the young men killed by Ray Lewis or his bodyguards was named Jacinth, so I've always thought of it as being masculine.

Is the stress really on the first syllable? Huh. I've aways pronounced it "juh-SINTH." ...How do I keep missing these things? :x
