I used to think this name was gone, but now some more people have this name. They all pronounce it "Josh-you-ah".
The Hebrew pronunciation is Yahshua and can be proved.
Pronounced "yoshua".
Joshua is NOT NOT NOT pronounced "JAH-sha-wa." This atrocious mispronunciation of my name is the worst. Much worse than "JAH-shoo-ah." It is pronounced "JAH-shyou-ah." The 'u' is a true "you". If is was pronounced "JAH-sha-wa," it would be spelled Joshawa -- which, by the way, I've heard of some people actually having that spelling in which they pronounced it just that way.
