Not as 'interesting' as a 'latte' thread. . . Lattay or Laahhtay

 

[Foshizzle]

Or to break it down even further: Bowie (rhymes with Joey) =correct
Bauee (like Jack Bauer) =wrong

Woah... I've NEVER heard him called David Joey. It's always been Bowie for me. Weird.

When I wrote Bowie/Joey, I meant to illustrate that the pronounciation of Bowie rhymed with Joey.

He's never been called David Joey as far as I know, not even by a British DJ

Ohhhh. . . you are the first one here so far who pronounces it the wrong way.
Have you always said it like that?

"Boo-E", like the knife."

Now you're confusing me!
The knife is not pronounced 'Boo-E', it's pronounced 'Joey', like David Bowie. . . Beau-E

Ok, you're right... Don't know what I was thinking...

Folks round here pronounce the town Bowie - like the thing that floats in the water!!

My brain hurts

Jareth as in "jar" or as in "chair" with a j?

[Calexico]

I used to pronounce it as BOW(cow)-ee. I still do sometimes but I correct myself quickly.

 

[Mike_TNT]

Get this: David Bowie spelled backwards is Divad Eiwob!

WOW! That's a wookie's name!

 

[sbulack]

Well, now that that's covered, shall we move on to Grado and Xin?

 

[Libertad]
