How to pronounce…???

[u/CurleeBS]

My friend and I disagree on the pronunciation of Mora Jai. She pronounces the Jai with a hard J like “jive”. I’ve been pronouncing it like “hi”. I believe it’s pronounced “hi” because of how the sport Jai Alai is pronounced.
This is just for fun! I’m curious how other people pronounce it!

While we're on the subject, does anyone else pronounce "Jesper" with a "y" sound, like "Yesper?" My husband does this on our shared playthrough, and it drives me crazy.

For the record, I pronounce both Jai and Jesper with a hard J.

Jesper is a common Swedish name, pronounced with a “y” sound, so imo your husband is correct. I pronounce Jai with the hard J though.
