To hear (audio) German pronunciation of first names - here is a website: http://www.nordicnames.de/Aussprache.html If anyone knows of a similar audio website for surnames, or if there is a German- speaking member out there - please help me pronounce "Bueding" correctly. Thanks! Sharon
I have a lot of German relatives here in St. Charles Co., MO and when a name has a "ue" it's usually pronounced as an "eh" sound. One in particular is Limekuehler - here it's pronounced Limekiller. But you have to remember some people here pronounce Missouri as Missourah. I'm a Missouri girl.
