Some bands have strange pronunciations of their names, that aren't immediately obvious from their spelling.
Entries Beginning with N
Not "Beed-ingfield" contrary to most words without double consonants.
Sherri
The first word may sound like it has two syllables, but it's really one. That's because a syllable cannot consist solely of consonants.
Joe
The "g" in her last name is silent because the name is of Italian origin. However, she was actually born in Australia. Her dad was originally from Italy.
Alex
Necrophagist pronounced as Neck-row-fayj-isst
weirdkid106
The last name is of Portuguese origin.
Megan
Isn't it obvious? They spelled their name phonetically!
Joe
The first syllable in her last name sounds just like the word "sure."
John
A former member of the boyband 98 Degrees. The last syllable in his name sounds just like the name Shea.
Jeffrey
Some say Nit-zer or Neet-zer but it is actually Nightzer as said by the band themselves
52345235
Many people pronounce the name of the band as Nir-Van-A but it's really pronounced Nir-Von-A.
Celeste
NOFX pronounced as no-ef-eks
Sounds like "no effects".
B1982
Neu does not mean "again" as a user claims, it means "new". Not funny, but true ;)
Johannes
German for "Again!"--possibly so-named because many of their songs are based on repetitive melodies.
