My friend just had her baby, how do you pronounce her name?

Bubbles1022 · April 2010

My friend just had her baby girl 2 hours ago!! I don't know how to pronounce the name and don't want to be rude and ask her.

The name is Imogen Grace. How do you pronounce the first name?

buttrflychic05 · April 2010

Either Em-o-jean or I-mo-jean

At least that is how I've always heard it pronounced.

IMIN ah GIN

AFWife1229 · April 2010

I would assume...how it's spelled. well I guess the g, would be more of a j sound. So like...ee-mo-jen?

sleepingbeauty825 · April 2010

I'd say im-ah-jin but I'm probably wrong.

Pumpmaster T · April 2010

I've never heard of that name.

Also, there is a movie with Freddie Prince Jr. and Julia Stiles (sp?) and Julia's character's name was Imogen.

ETA: The movie is called "Down with Love" I think.

im(short i)-uh-jen

There was a movie out a few years back w/ Freddie Prinze Jr and Julia Stiles. Her name was Imojen and that's how they pronounced it.

IM oh jihn. That's how I would pronounce it. I like it!

shihtzumomma · April 2010

I've heard it pronounced Emmajen but with the emphasis on "emma", the "jen" part sounding more like "jn"

yourmom5309 · April 2010

I have heard it called Im-a-jehn

This. I have an Aunt Imogen and that's how we say it.

monkey_mama09 · April 2010

Honestly, I would just ask her, since we are all saying different things. Just say something like, "I've heard it a few different ways, so how are you pronouncing it?" I'm sure she won't get offended. Plus, when she chose an uncommon name like that, she had to have known that people would ask how it's pronounced.

Temp785382312506150 · April 2010

It beats me. I have never seen that name before.

Great suggestion, I think I am going to ask her this way.
