Pronunciation of Mario characters

Magikrazy

Donkey Kong
How do you pronounce the Mario characters' names?

I pronounce Birdo bird-oh, Mario mahr-ee-oh, and Wario wahr-ee-oh.
 
I pronounce birdo like Bir-dough, i pronounce waluigi likee Wah-Loo-Wee-gee, and i pronounce koopa's like Kue-Pah
 
Bay B. Loo E. G.
 
I pronounce Donkey Kong as "stupid ape thing".

Don't you mean "the stupid ape thing"?

I pronounce it as "the stupid brown thing"

You stole my idea. :dk:

Mario: Mahr-ree-yo
Luigi: Loo-wee-geee
Waluigi: Wah-loo-wee-gee
Yoshi: (add a "t" at the end of his name, and that's my opinion on him)
Diddy Kong: Didd-ee Kaw-ng
Bowser: Bao-zer
Lakitu: Lack-ee-too
Wario: Wohr-ree-yo (as in "warrior")
 
Mahr-ee-o
Loo-ee-gee. (sometimes i prononce it Luh-ee-gee)
Peach.
Wahr-ee-o. (sometimes i prononce the War simelir to Pour)
Wa-loo-ee-gee. (or Wa-luh-ee-gee)
Bow-zer.
Yo-she
Bird-oh.

Hmmm, they seem self-explanatory for the most part. I generally pronounce things the way they look anyway.
 
Am I the only one who pronounces Mario's name Mah-Rio and not Mahr-rio?

as in Marry-O? Mar as in Marry and not as in Mars?

I thought only people not familiar with the series (like my grandparents) did that. Eh, whatever. I pronounce it the way they say it in-game.

Whoa.

Seeing this... I prolly pronounced it both ways without even knowing.

I thought I was the only one who pronounced it like this. I got used to it since that's the way Mario pronounces it in Mario Tennis, which was the very first game where I saw Birdo.
