Re: Esmée's pronunciation and form
Also, I noticed that in French the emphasis is usually placed on the last syllable (as opposed to English where the emphasis is typically at the beginning or middle), so the pronounciation of ez-MAY for Esme and Esmee is correct. Just like we pronounce Rene and Renee re-NAY and Aime and Aimee e-MAY.
