Pronounced JYR-ki (Soundfile ex. http://www.sci.fi/~kajun/finns/Samples/Jyrki.wav or http://www.sci.fi/~kajun/finns/male.htm)

In Finnish, J is pronounced as English Y as in 'yard', Y has no English equivalent (round your lips tightly like you're going to say 'ooh' and make the sound for I in 'sit' and you should at least come close), R is rolled, K is K as in 'kitten', I is EE as in 'meet'.

This name is strange. It sounds like and makes me think of jerky.

Sounds like jerky. Makes me think of Angelica from Rugrats saying "Not the jury - the jerky!"
