Language / Polish Language Pronunciation - Example Words and Phrases [178]

Thank you for the info :) We considered Maria, but we would like the name to very clearly sound Polish and many people we've talked to say they think of Mexican heritage first when they hear "Maria." Plus, our last name is not Polish, so that increases the confusion of a Polish sounding name.

Would the syllables be: /Mar-ee-shen-ka/ or /Ma-rish-en-ka/?

Merged: Pronunciation of Marysienka/appropriate given name?

How do you pronounce Marysienka and Marysieńka, and could it be appropriate to use this as a given name for a baby in the U.S.?
