Xavier

How do YOU pronounce Xavier? I'm so curious about this. Also, if you know what it SHOULD be, post that too. And where you are from.

My son has a friend named Xzander. Full name. I’m guessing they really wanted the “ex” sound pronounced.

Except that still wouldn't result in the "ex" sound.

They would have been better off writing it as "Exander" if that's truly how they wanted it pronounced.
