Re: Pronunciation Help - Indian Name
The stress on the JAH is very non-Indian, though India is a big country and pronounciation changes as we move around. I am setting this character somewhere in the region around Delhi and then the most common pronounciation would be the bisyllabic raj/nee except in deliberately affected/careful pronounciation. (The a in raj is the same as in English cut). rajani will definitely be recognized as the same name, though unusually pronounced.
