| These are popular names that you can expect a Townie to be called. I have provided alternatives, shortenings, and handy-dandy pronounciation. Sound files of the pornounciation are unfortunately not found in the Pronounciation Guide, because I don't have that much online space :) Hopefully what sounds DO appear on the Pronounciation Guide will give you an idea as to how these names are pronounced, anyway: |
