This question came up during a game last night. None of us really knew the answer. I personally have been saying "Az-Dru-Bye-El", but I have no idea whether or not that is correct.

It is best to be a pessimist. You are usually right and, when you're wrong, you're pleasantly surprised.

None. I pronounce it with an emphasis on the "as", so AZ-dru-bail.

The way it's spelt it has to be As-Drew-Bail.

I heard someone talking about him on the overlords and I didn't even recognise who he was talking about. I'm usually awful at spelling or pronouncing difficult names but seem to have voted with the majority here! Woop wool!

Miserable Blech

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

Excerpt from "Seeress of Kell", Book Five of The Malloreon series by David Eddings.

Indeed, emphasis on the first part.

As (As in as)

Dru (As in dru-id)

Ba (As in ba-d)

El (As in El-dar)

AS-dru-ba-el.

It's how we would pronounce it in Sweden.
