pronunciation
I'm wondering about the pronunciation of my new nephew's name. It's Collyer. I found out that it's an english name meaning "Charcoal merchant" (interesting choice, brother-of-mine) but I want to know if it would be Col-lee-er or Col-Yer and if the o is short or long.
thanks for your help
