Uh...what?
Topic jump.
I've never heard it pronounced "dah-lee-uh" myself, but apparently enough people use it to be considered acceptable. I still stand by "dahl-yah" as the "proper" pronounciation, though. Both work.

As I've said before, Dahlia is one of those names that can be pronounced a number of ways and still be correct, but since her petname is Dollie we can assume she pronounces her name "DOLL-ee-yuh" or "DOLL-yuh.

I believe the author said "keh-tah-kee." Isn't Wocky's family a yakuza gang? Thus meaning they are JAPANESE? It's "KEE-tah-kee."

I was under the impression that v's in German have a f sound to them. Making klavier pronounces kla-feer...
aaand according to a random google search that seems to be right :/ http://www.utils.ex.ac.uk/german/pronounce/
Though I've never studied German. Anyone who has mind clearing this up for me?
Though I must say that it should be pronounced God-oh. Samuel Beckett has spoke of this so, so many times. The Americanized pronunciation of guh-doh is incorrect. I have studied theatre a bit~ so this is a bit of a pet peeve of mine <3

Maybe Dah-lee-uh is teh Amereican pronunciation?
Anyway, God-oh? Kla-feer? I'll except Kla-feer if I have to, but God-oh doesn't sound right. I have a feeling they wrote it assuming it was guh-doh.

It's pronounced god-oh in all the foreign film versions as well, Guh-doh is a completely American mistake~ I've had a epic argument about this with my theatre teacher~
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmoDMdLoUZw Here, this is an excerpt from Waiting For Godot in the 2001 Beckett on film collection, made in Ireland, as you see Vladimir clearly says 'Godot'. Every foreign version has the same pronunciation.
But, hey, poh-tay-toe pah-tah-toe <3 The way everyone pronounces stuff is up to them~

Personally, I like Guh-DOH more, but Go-DOH is close.

Only a couple I don't agree with, but it may just be me. Second opinion?
(I spelled it wrong? Oops.) I think it's TRILL, cos the pun was Ben Trilo Quist (Ventriloquist), and you don't say ven-tree-low-kwist, it's ven-trill-oh-quist. Or maybe that's me.
Didn't she... SAY it was "oh, really"? I mean, I'd agree if it wasn't for that.
I think it's "mock-ee" or something to that effect, cos I say the MACH in Machi like Mach-5.
Still, you totally rock. Really.
@PA- Me, too. But it ain't properly, so...

For example, I thought her last name was pronounced like Or-ULL-ly. That sounds like O RLY, but isn't O RLY.

(I did that list up when I was superbored and half asleep, so they're probably all wrong anyways. Thanks for the star, though *MUNCH MUNCH*)
In the OP you spelt Trilo 'Trillo'. His name is a pun on ventriloquist, but phonetically it should be "TREE-low" or "TREEL-oh".
And I already discussed the matter of Olga's last name with Franzise, if you would care to read back. Olga said that her name SOUNDS LIKE "Oh really", not that it IS "Oh really".
As for Machi, I'm not sure at all how his name is really pronounced because everyone pronounces it differently. His Japanese name is Maki, but I think that if they wanted to keep it that way in the localization then they wouldn't have changed the spelling ('Mach' is pronounced 'mock', but adding a vowel on the end changes the pronunciation). Phonetically, I believe that his first name is pronounced "MAH-shi" or "MAW-shi", and I pronounce his last name like a Japanese name out of habit.
In other news...
The T&T European release is a go!
Are any of the T&T characters' names pronounced differently in the UK?

They're doing it after all? AWESOME (even though I don't live there, it just seemed so assholeish they were planning to skip it D<). Pronunciations should be the same, since the names are. Except you guys may say it a little differently because of your accent (or lack of it, or whatever). The gist'd be the same, though, right?

Since Olga said that her name sounds like "Oh really", thus we can safely say that her name is pronounced phonetically, because if it was actually pronounced "Oh really" she would be being redundant.
Saying "Oh really" sounds like "Oh really" is completely true, because they're the same. It's redundant to call something that's identical to something else 'similar', and redundancy is frowned upon
Can I rest my case nao?
EDIT
ONOES SKLAR UNEDIT THE OP Copypasta is bad! I omitted several names from my 'stressed' list, so now the OP is incomplete!

"or-lee" doesn't sound like "oh ree-lee." That's like saying "comb" sounds like "ice cream cone."
The joke they keep using in 4-1 (Oh really, Orly?) doesn't make sense if it's "or-lee." It's "oh ree-lee."
And add "dahl-ya" already.
