Zaikesman's Username Pronunciation Field Guide

Well, not exactly hard to pronounce or a prescription drug but derived from me getting the wild idea of putting a V-8 engine under the hood of my 91 Mazda RX7, and then wouldn't you know, Mazda later comes out with an RX8 !! Not like mine though, I was first, ha ha !! Thanks for the clarification Zaikesman, what nationality, German ?

I always figured Jeffloistarca was Jeff and Lois Tarca. This thread is turning my world upside down!

There's a Japanese restaurant nearby called Gombei. Don't know what it means.

Tireguy, but you use a different name in those movies you make, don't you? BTW I would very much like to see pictures of you (AWESOME I am sure) 3.6s. Also I read your comments about Sound Lab speakers, it seems a natural progression to me, I hope you get a pair some day so I can read your comments.

BTW mine is pronounced: phil joe let

like my name: Phil Jolette

I have neices and nephews living on either side of me.

So, as I am used to responding to this from all family members---child and adult alike---y'all can call me 'Unclejeff', too.

I figured with such an unusual first name like Sherod, I'd go ahead and just use it as my username,just like Sean, Albertporter,etc.( except their first names aren't unusual) It's a family name( I'm the 3rd) taken from my great-great grandmother's French last name Sherrotte. Sherod, just like Sherrod, (some people have this as their last name) except with only one "r", is pronounced Cher-ud, with the accent on the first syllable. Very few people get the pronunciation right the first time.I have had a rough time throughout my life with my name that I usually just accept how most people pronounce my name without taking the time to correct them and then go into a long thesis of where it came from. Most of the "rednecks" in my neck-of-the-woods just say," What the heck were your parents thinking?"
