There's the usual mistake of making it 5 syllables rather than 3 but they tend to add exotic emphasis to different syllables that is nice.

It'd be a lot easier if Irish people didn't insist on sticking random vowels into words for no reason. I knew a Siobhan years ago. It's three syllables and has a b in it, FFS.

Heh. I've found that people, especially Americans, rarely pronounce my nation name right. Indecipherable pronunciation FTW.

Definitely debatable in the looks department. Personality wise, he is more rude and slightly more selfish (not too selfish). He'd rather be seen without me xD He also doesn't have a nation here because, and I quote, "I'm not a basement dweller without a life."

Ouch, pretty hard words...at first glance it may seem like that, but NS is a real fun! And it's easy to still maintain the healthy proportions I think

Well, your bro seems to be more "down to earth" and pragmatic (but I can be wrong of course) which have the pros and cons.

I'm koberulz everywhere else, but that doesn't sound like much of a country name, so I just started throwing on extra letters until I found something nobody else was going by. Now that I've stopped using the nation simulator and have 2000-odd posts on the forums, I'm wishing I'd just stuck with koberulz, but there's not much I can do now.

I've always pronounced it Koh-be-ahn-air...
*shrugs*
I was close...

Once you get the 'kobe' part right, I stop caring, really. It's certainly less annoying than the people who call me 'kober' on forums where I go by 'koberulz', as though there isn't a much more logical way of shortening it.

An insubstantial concern compared to winning the mantle of being being the sexiest.

If-ren/If-rin. All those letters and only two syllables.

Even if I get deated, I could come back, even being DOSed doesn't prevent one from being a lurker.

48 per voter?

I've always pronounced it with two syllables, I just had both vowel sounds long, rather than short.

Not so much in Protestant heavy schools. Plus some time in a gaeltacht school helped. Rusty as fuck now though. My vocabulary is suffering from lack of use.
