Names -> Band Name Pronunciations -> R
Some bands have strange pronunciations of their names, that aren't immediately obvious from their spelling.
Rihanna pronounced as Ree-Ah-Na
Fizz
Rihanna pronounced as Ree-AH-nah
Rhymes with Brianna. Yeah, I know... but this one DJ on one of my local stations pronounces her name "Ree-ANN-ah", and it drives me crazy!!!
flipside
Rihanna pronounced as REE-hanna-hanna-hanna-na-na-na-na
Jake
REO Speedwagon pronounced as Rio Speedwagon
Some classmates in school pronounced the band's name like this.
Otto Oshawa
Roland Orzabal pronounced as RO-LAND OR-ZAB-AL
I once saw a You Tube Video in which a news station misspelled Roland's last name O-R-Z-A-B-E-L and it's really O-R-Z-A-B-A-L.
Celeste
Ravi Shankar pronounced as Rov-ee Shain-car
