[Opinions] Pronunciation of Raphael
Do you stress the first syllable- "RA-fee-uhl", or the last- "ra-fee-EL"?Is the 'a' more like "cat" or "caught"?If you encountered it on a white, American child, how would you assume it to be pronounced?What do think of the nn Rafe?And lastly, Wdyt of the name in general and do you prefer Raphael or Rafael?
