Sisley Posted January 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Ok, so for those of you who are wondering about the proper pronunciation of my name, here's your answer. The name Ewa is of Polish origin. They pronounce their "w's" like "v's". So the proper pronounciation is "Eva" (ee-vah). HOWEVER, I do not go by that pronounciation as my parents have always pronounced it differently, so I grew up answering to how it's actually spelt. "Eee-wah". Thanks for playing!

Hawaii pronounces there W's like V's also so you your name actually would sound very similar back home. My family named me Naomi, then presided to call me No-me. Silly parents!
