Oh, yay. I know my name will be commonly mispronounced.

Annielle Katzenberg

An - Like Ahn or On
Ni - Like "Knee"
Ell - Like the letter L
E - Like the letter E!

So together, it's pretty much On-E-L-E or Ahn-ee-elle-ee.

Katz - "Cats"
En - "In"
Berg - "Berrrrrrrrrg"

Well, my first name is easy enough
Amanda- A-Uh Man-Man Da-Duh
Uh-Man-Duh

Last name is a bit hard, its French. People who do not know/understand French or the accent may pronounce it Du-Bo-Is or Du-Bois
it is really pronouced
Doo-Buah
its kind of hard to explain over a post unless you know french.
so it's

Uh-Man-Duh Doo-Buah

Atrain Volecuz may be messed up with many other names out there. But dont be mistaken of how to spell it.

Atrain sounds like this.

A--Eh (Like the canadian word that we always use.. or A)
tr--tree (Yes tree like a birch or maple.)
ain--an (like AN apple)

Together is sounds like A-tree-an and spelt like Atrain. Now my last name is a little more tough it sounds like this.

Volecuz sounds like...

Vol--vall (Like fall with a V)
e--uh (like when your tired and your mom wakes you up and u say uhhh)
cuz--cause (Like because except without the be.)

So all together its....

Eh-tree-an Vall-uh-cause
