Cormac?

Thoughts? Like or dislike?

I've actually seen a couple different pronunciations for Cormac online. Which is strange because I didn't know there were so many. How would you pronounce it?

I've heard is pronounced like:  'core-mack'.  I had some kids in grade school with the last name McCormack and that is the nick name they'd go by.

and it makes me think of cormac mccarthy, while i think he's a good and unusual author, i still don't like the name.

I'm more inclined to say cor-mick. Not a big fan of this name.

I would say cor-mick too. I haven't heard it until recently, still not quite sure how I feel about it.

I would say "core mick" and I really dislike it.

i agree on both accounts.

Gotta say, I think the name is pretty cool.  I also like the spelling as you have it without a 'K' at the end.

I say it kind of a mix between cor-mack and cor-mick, like a lazy A sound. Cor-muck, with the emphasis on Cor.

It's alright, makes me think of Cormac McCarthy.

This!  The A is kind of halfway between an A and an I.  I like it, it's just not among my favorite.

usually a lurker but have to comment on this post...Cormac is my DS's name and we obviously love it. It's different and a very strong name. However, I will say, NO ONE pronounces it correctly!!! The actual Irish pronunciation is Cor-"muck" but in America should be pronounced Cor-"mick"...Even when we tell people clearly this is our son Cor-"mick"  they say "hello Cor-MACK"...ALWAYS with the emphasis on the MACK. I want to slap them. lol..but seriously

Ditto. Unfortunately for me, DH does not share my love.
