I usually say Fee-ah-nor but I'm not real good at figuring out how to pronounce things so don't pay attention to me.
I say Tol-kin and Tol-keen whichever I feel like at the moment.
My brother and I have almost always pronounced Smeagol Smee-oh-gull which is probably wrong.
I pronouced Eomer and Eowyn Ee-oh-mer and Ee-oh-win until recently. Now I say Ae-oh-mer and Ae-oh-en
I have no idea how to pronounce Thranduil but I usually say Thran-due-ill
I think that evenstar is pronouced Even-Star as in Evening star.
Does anyone now how to pronounce Earendil? Is it Ear-en-dill?
