ArchivesHow is this pronounced - Kéllè
A friend and I are writing a story together, and we came up with a name that we cannot decide how to pronounce. I have a limited knowledge of accents, so I'm not sure how to say it, and a little confused
the name is Kéllè
we spelled it Kelle at first, but decided that the accents were fun to read, so we would use them, and don't like saying it as kell or kelly

What exactly are you asking? Do you want to know how Kéllè would be pronounced if it were, say, French, even though it isn't?

something like that; it's not really a specific language that i want, just however looking at those letters together sounds in your head :)

If you were following French pronunciation, it would be something like [ké-LEH]
"è" - as in "get", "met", "set"
"é" sound (as in Renée, cliché) - doesn't exist in English, although it is often mispronounced as "ay". It's roughly a shorter "eh" sound.
