Well..I pronounce my username as Baffie pee..
But it's written as Buffypii..
The reason for that is that Buffy is my doggie's name..And the pii part is just another way of saying girl in Norwegian..hehe

Mine's a really tough one. I'll try to type it slow.

"Let-Us-Bay-Kun-And-Toe-May-Toe"

I'm sure that cleared up a whole lot of pronunciation difficulties out there.

Mine's simple too. It's pronounced as More-and say "I" as you would 1 word, err, letter? but with the letter "N" in front of it. ;)

Mine should be fairly straightforward, given that most of it is just the name of the main protagonist in LBT. As for the numerical portion, that's pronounced "five-oh-five"

My full username pronunciation is like this:
"Little-foot-five-oh-five"

Like everyone else, I have an easy pronunciation for my username. For the number I usually say 'seven-seventy' and skip the whole 'hundred and' part :p

Not like this. (And yeah, I’ve often wondered why this video exists, and why someone cared enough to make it.) It’s just pronounced like the mathematical instrument.

I think my name might be difficult for some people, so here is the pronunciation.

Level
end
tetris
end

I think an important thing in pronouncing my username is that the two "e"s are pronounced equally.
My "II" actually means "the second", but nobody called me like that yet. The "II" has to do with the creation of my username. Most people pronounce it "I-I" like in 'Internet'. I think that's okay, since I call it "I-I" myself.  :DD It would be very strange if someone would call me "Levente the second" by now.
The mistake that most people make with my username is that they are mistaking the "II" for "ll". The problem is, that some fonts make the big 'i' look the same as the small 'L'.

In the following example, I'm using the font "arial":

Internet
leaf


One can't recognize any difference, but it is there.
Well, that's how most people pronounce my username. However, I'm open for other variations. Maybe there is a better one out there  :p
