I find most people I know pronounce Carlisle like this, Car - Lie - aal . Sort of like lial at the end.

Esme and Jasper can also be pronounced with a "z" sound though, I think...
Hence the nickname "Jazz."

The one I always had the biggest problem with was Quileute.
Quil-YOOT.

And Carlisle is Car-LIAL, with the "isle" as in "island."

esme's actually pronounced like. ez-me. Somone gave me a link to hearing it as well. Its really es-me or ez-me depending on how you hear it i suppose.

That's funny, because I usually just skip over that word, not really knowing how to pronounce it. xD

But I agree with Esme. I pronounce it like ez-may.

Ya I meant Car-Lial XD I didnt know how to write it out. As for the other prounounciations Ill try to fix. XD I should go rewatch the interview with stephanie to see what some of the names sound like

The best way I've seen to pronounce Carlisle is "KAHR-lie-ul"
And I think Quil should be "Kwil", not "K-will" since it's only one syllable.
And to me, Jacob isn't "Jake-ub" but "JAY-kub"

Just my two (or three) cents. ^^

I can pronounce every characters' name right, twas just Emse that got me.

Me and my friends pronounce it 'Ez-May'.
n.n;;;

I think that's the correct pronounciation, personally.

'Ez-muh' wouldn't be too horribly pronounciating it either.
:]

I thought it was more like Kwil-a-yoot...
I listen to the audio books and that's how Ilyana Kadushin pronounces it confused

The one name I think most people have doubts with is Esme. Esme IS pronounsed Ez-May. That's how Stephenie Meyer said it.

At first glance of Carlisle I read
Cars-lee [not cars like vroom vroom]
So I got stuck with that
shame.
