Try typing in "Zhy'mere". It's pretty hilarious. As of 6/17/2023 it comes out as something like "bledljblkjaser". Pretty useless for tricky names, but the laughs get it an extra star.

I would really like to be able to use this for Chinese names, but it's not very good yet I'm afraid. One example is the name 'Xin' which comes out as sounding like 'eksayun' - it's treating the 'x' as a separate sound.

I love the idea, and I love NameCoach's name badges, but I was disappointed to find that the new extension simply reads the name using an American English accent, and does not give options for different regional pronunciations or countries of origin. I tried the examples of several "difficult" names I know (Gijs, Rohan, Arjun, Arjan, Rogelio, and Diallo), and all of them were pronounced incorrectly by the AI.
