Thread Name: Pronouncing Karpeles etc
Subject: Pronouncing Karpeles, etc
Hello,

I'm interested in the early history of the English folk revival, but since most of the personnel are long dead and rarely spoken of aloud, I'm wondering how some of their names were pronounced.

Maud Karpeles - CAR-pulls, CAR-pullers, CAR-per-lees?
Sabine Bearing-Gould - Sa-BEEN or SAY-bine?

Feel free to add any other names to the discussion. Much obliged...
