so everyone thinks it is said how i mean for it to be said? sweethess

 

If you want to make sure, you can just drop an L as double consonants lengthen the emphasis of the vowell they follow.

CALiton, CALifornia

[TheCalliton]

so caliton instead of calliton?

not sure... the double l looks better i think

Good point - your call in the end though

At least I was pronouncing it right all along

[XanAlderon]

I've always read it as

 

Cal - I - Tun.

[antonkr]

Simply calliton. Easy enough.

[ytsejam91]

Just "Calliton" with the open "a" (like "cat"), so probably as you intended it.

 

(that's the problem with english: the writing is different from pronunciation :biggrin: )

[ub3rman123]

No worries, I don't think there's that much of a problem with pronouncing Calliton. Think of some other characters.. Drizzt Do'urden of the unpronouncable monikers spring to mind?

[TheCalliton]

ok, cuz i have herd it pronounced calliton like you calling someone, on xbox live (at my friends house)

[Captainscar]

Cal As In C A in Car L in Alan

Li as in lee

ton as in Ton

[SilverDNA]

I think of Charll-ih-ton ( and I roll the "R" and the last syllable I let it weight like a "TON" ) If I would try to annoy you, I would double the "ih" in the middle and make it sound like "Hi-Hi".

I hope you have your fun and a lots of laughter because of this.
