I believe it's May-zee.

While we're at it, is it Crud-up or Crood-up?

This is insane! In any event, down to business. People, look:

It's pronounced like it looks. Ra-úl, accent on the second syllable. There's a slight difference in pronounciation between the way Raúl E. spells it, and the way they spell it in Phantom (Raoul), which is more... meh, I can't explain it, but it's best like... someone said rhyming with "owl." You sort of sound out the syllables more - rent the DVD and listen to it... I don't know. But anyway, the man in question pronounces it like it looks, or for the phonetically challenged, Rah-ool, and Jwei got it right.

<-- by the way, he's shocked and appalled that people don't know how to pronounce his name correctly. So much so that he's waving his hands at you.

While we're on this pronounciation thing, how do you pronounce Christian Borle's last name? Is it Boar-lay? Or is it Boar-el?

Boar-el, I think. heh, that was MUCH easier.

I always feel weird when I pronounce John Tartaglia's last name, like I'm not doing it right! I pronounce it John Tart-ag-lee-uh.
