How to Pronounce seems like the best one.  The Name Engine was fun to play with and look up names to see if I have pronounced them correctly from sports and whatnot.  Unless you hear their name being said in the news it can be difficult. I remember reading A Monster Calls by Siobhan Dowd and I had never 1 time seen that name in print.  I had no idea it was shuh-VAHN.  These sorts of tools can help readers pronounce names correctly from books as well as students
