I meant no disrespect at all, and if any offense was taken, I apologize for doing a little research.

My point is that names that originate from non-Anglican languages like Tagalog or Hindi tend to be anglicized when spoken in an English/American/Canadian accent. They’re not pronounced wrong because of the language and accent difference, but there does exist another pronunciation that originates from ethnic roots.

Very cool that you took the time to do some research, however your initial assumption led you astray; The name isn't a Hindi or Tagalog name. Regardless, Chief Delphi definitely isn't the place for an etymological discussion of my name.
