Bitcoin Forum

Hello everyone!

How often do you pronounce usernames from BitcoinTalk out loud, or hear others saying them? Do you think the way you're saying them with your inside voice is correct?
Do you think others are pronouncing your username as you intended?

So many questions! Let's try and answer them in a future video, we're going to be having fun whatever the answers  :D

Just type the username/s below and optionally add how you think they should be pronounced, bonus points if you record yourself!
It could be your own Bitcointalk username as well as other usernames.

If you don't know what The BitcoinTalkShow is, here's a few links: The BitcoinTalkShow Youtube (https://www.youtube.com/BitcoinTalkShow) and the discussion thread here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5351302)

It would be great if Cyrus can hire "Akrobeto (https://youtu.be/mOKaVTX7ipk?t=63)" or anyone that's great at messing up pronunciations, for that segment :D

Usernames = How I think^* they should be pronounced ^{[I apologize in advance]} ;D
* = Not the correct way

• LoyceV = Loy-se-Vu ^{[French accent]}
• pooya87 = Pooh-yeahhhh-ate-seven ^{[Southern accent]}
• achow101 = Achoo-one-owww-one ^{[cute accent]}
• mocacinno = Mocha!-seen!-NOOooooo ^{[Japanese accent]}
• SFR10 = Es-Ef-Rawr (meow) ^{[sexy accent]}

There’s so many forum members’ names that I just can’t pronounce  :) Personally I just go for a sort of nickname or short version in my mind.
Here’s a few examples -

Members Name           My version

Pmalek                          Peem
ChiBitCTy                       Chi
tranthidung.                  Tran
DdmrDdmr                    Double D
geophphreigh                Geo
Oshosondy                    Osh
tyKiwanuka                   T

I do also wonder how these members pronounce their own names ??
(May be worth a separate thread )

I think my username is quite easy to pronounce, nevertheless, I have an official pronunciation tutorial:

However, there are too many words in your name.  :o

Let me add more;

• Hhampuz = Ham-pooz ^{[Tone in H]}
• o_e_l_e_o = o-ee-lee-o ^{[Just like we pronounce Leo]}
• gmaxwell - gee-max-well
• ETFBitcoin - E-Too-Foo-Bitcoin
• odolvlobo - od-o-le-vel-o-bo
• Welsh - Wέlsh

I know him as Loυ-chε-Vι.  :P

No way. It's mo-ka-tsi-no.

Why French? I'm not sure how to type phonetics in English, but I'd say it's "Loy-se-Ve". Or make it my full random name: Loyce Valenzuela rolls off the tongue much better! Or just call me Marcel.

Don't do him short, it's clearly OO underscore EE underscore EL underscore EE underscore OO :P

Your real name is not Loyce? Okay, let's see. DannyHamilton is actually called Danny Hamilton, LoyceV is not called Loyce, but Marcel (which makes sense now that I rethought of it). What's next? o_e_l_e_o not called Leo? franky1 not from Frank? Satoshi not Craig?

I removed the underscores and it's the worst thing I've ever seen in a sentence: oeleo. And I googled it. And there's a place (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oeleo) by that name. Spooky coincidence or terrible irony for his privacy emphasis?  :P

Lol - this getting crazy  :)
LoyceV is …… Loice V …….surely  :)

LoyceV =  Loys Ve or Louise Ve

Loyce is obviously a female name, so maybe I have to start addressing LoyceV as she from now on.
I don't see a problem with that if people can still claim Lauda was a female, and I think that someone mentioned before that V is the first letter of a very long last name.

I can neither confirm nor deny that my name either is or is not Leo.

My fiendish plan to obscure my location has been compromised! I'll be requesting theymos change my name to b_a_r_c_o_e_l_e_o_n_a. That should keep people guessing.

But yeah, the second episode pronounced it properly: Oh-Leo. Or just Leo. Which is or is not my name.

I thought it was well known my name came from a random name generator.

Now don't start thinking Marcel (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5226757.msg53866363#msg53866363) is my real name :D

Do explain :D

Who's Crack?

By the time I figured that out, "LoyceV" had grown on me as a name. I never expected I'd still be using it almost 7 years later!

Lauda & Loyce please confirm your gender... (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5128579.msg50480757#msg50480757)

You('re Chinese and) just spelled Oreo completely wrong?

since I was curious how it sound my username in several languages... yes... definitely no surprise: it is corrected spelled/has always the same sound in any language I have heard/tried.
I made a test with google https://translate.google.it/?sl=it&tl=en&text=bitbollo&op=translate and it sound more or less correctly in any language (ok not really perfect in Bulgarian or Nepalese but this is a good starting point)!
It's funny (at least to me) that in any language you want to curse me ... it will always sound the same ;D

I know you are Italian, but for some reason, my inside voice was always pronouncing your name as fillip + one. Like one fillip. Does 'fillippone' mean little fillip, just like 'principino' means little prince?

I have always been fond of the way Italians create simple nicknames. In Gomorrah, you will hear Genny, Genna or don Genna for Gennaro. Or my favorite Patri or donna Patri for Patricia. Ciru for Ciro even tough it's almost the same.

No, no, you don't pronounce that. You just copy and paste it from one of his posts if you need it. ;D   

I can say with absolute certainty that your name is Leo or it isn't. It's 100% one or the other.

Wow, you're the first person I know who uses a random name generator. Could you PM me the generator you used?  :P

C'mon, “Loyce Vee” is the name of a cartoon character the most. Marcel is prestigious.

We are. We are all Crack Wright ;)

Justified. Honestly, “Marcel”, a fox cycling with LoyceV as a username? Fun fact: When I was still a newbie I thought he was a female. That's the beauty of pseudonymity.

That's a good one ^{[assuming that someone is going to pronounce it with a Cholo accent]} ;)

You're right, but the blend on its last part felt good; hence why I went with a French-style...

Hey Marcel :P ;)

I'm confused! Can I call you Marcellus instead ^{[it's more macho (music to my ears)]}? ;D

Have you tried listening to it in Portuguese and Arabic? :D

Not bad at all ;D I was expecting something really disjointed...
In Portuguese it sounds like "Bi*ch bollo" ... Arabic version sounds like "Bitta-bollo"

The "bollo" part of my username sounds always in the same manner ;) in all languages

Thanks, that is one plot twist.
Your forum last name Valenzuela is exactly the same like first class city in Philippines, that must have some deeper meaning.

Now I see the bigger picture and conspiracy behind Foxpup merit cycling.
It's one big girl power movement, so I am suspecting that all members could be females only or wannabes.
Prove me wrong.

I can assure you that the Merit Cycling Club has members who are both male and female; there is no truth to the rumour that I am "female only".

Ahh, the butchery of my name...

For no reason I always thought it had something to do with Dark Souls 2 and those weird ass [Loyce] knights in a place called Eleum Loyce.

WTF, poo-yeah? It's instant, ya! But, to avoid any misunderstandings, I address to the expert to tell us what do poo and ya stand for.  :-X

I had never tought about it that way, but this pronunciation makes sense... From now on, that's how i'm going to call myself (if asked) :)

• NotATether = Not-A-Tether ^{[No accent at all, or if you are the kind of guy who just hates pronouncing stuff without an accent, borrow the Terminator's voice]}

There, made it really simple for you :)

Some people pronounce it Not-at-ether which I find a bit crazy (and obnoxious at times).

I will say more, rumors that this club exists are just rumors.  ::)

Aww I am going to remember you guys with these pronunciations  ;D

Easy way to remember me? its Pug-BARK BARK BARK BARK BARK BARK-man

easy yes? I would hope so.  >:( This how i look!
