Two names I came across today

I came across the name "Pedar" at work today. We butchered it when calling him back to see the Doctor. We said Puh-Dar. It's supposed to be pronounced "Peter". Confused

 Xarius for a girl. Pronounced ex-air-e-us.

    Pedar doesn't sound all that bad to me somehow, but wow...Xarius? For a girl? That just doesn't seem right.

    Pedar is way too funny-in my head I wasnt sure if it was supposed to be Peter or Puh-dar either!!

    OK, I seriously LOL'd to Pedar. That pronunciation never even crossed my mind in the least. I immediately went to Pe-DAR. No way would I have gotten Peter from that.

    I've met a Pedar before. He was from Germany, but it's a Danish name I think. Not strange at all.

    Xarius on the other hand sounds pretty made-up and very masculine for a little girl.

    I would have said "pee-dar" so it is good I didn't have to call out! :)

    Barf to both, but especially Xarius... ew. Pee-dar is how I would have said the other one. What's wrong with spelling it Peter? Gah!
