I Checked out the three links for name pronunciation. I used my father’s name, Gennaro, to check for accuracy. Then I used three known student names, Malak, Wisam and Fatima.  My father’s name was only recognized by one of the three search engines. The Arabic names were unknown. I could have added the names to the database but that was not the reason for visiting the site. If I only have two minutes I need results now. I decided to use the link from the podcast and had favorable results. Gennaro was pronounced correctly. It also let me know this was a name common in Italy. It recognized my other entries and did a good job on letting me know how to pronounce them. I have bookmarked this site and will be sure to use it in the future.
