One of my good friends is named Sharisa (sha-ree-sah), another named Sherrie (rhymes with hurry), and one named Lonelle (low-nell). I have a cousin Courtlyn, his mom saw the name Courtland on a gravestone and changed the spelling. One girl in my high school had a name pronounced Day-veen, but I can’t remember how it was spelled-new teachers always tried “de-vine” first though.
