So it should be a hard C or a K, just like how I pronounce Celtic.
For my name, I am not particular on pronunciation. I just say owz-key-uh. Awz-key-uh is acceptable.

Yeah, I naturally assumed "au" was pronounced in the German manner, because your nation seems pretty German-themed.

I know that feel, bro. Most people here in America tend to have a hard time pronouncing my German as fuck last name.

Honestly, the wait for season 4 isn't gonna be that bad for me. I mean, before season 4 premiers I get season 2 of The Legend of Korra and season 4 of The Walking Dead.
