    I could use some help on this one. I'm featuring one of his recordings on my show very soon and I have no idea how to pronounce the mans name.

    Once this is resolved you are more than welcome to delete this thread.

    Thanks in advance.

  4. If he's Slavic, it's going to be Varooyan Koyeean

    It doesn't sound like an arabic name at all.

    Perhaps you should introduce his name with a disclaimer/apology on how you pronounce his name Erik? If, of course, you don't find out how to pronounce it.

    If my experience of hearing Armenian soccer player named being pronounced is to be trusted, it's Varu-Yan Ko-Jee-An

    yeah
    What Jon said (though not too much emphasis on the -jee- in Ko-jee-an. More like Ko-gian)

    Yes, what Jon and Martjin said.
    I am extremely serious.
  12. Erik, "that-conductor-bloke-from-Beirut-with-the-name-that's-Armenian-in-origin-and-that-I-can't-pronounce" could be a less diplomatic alternative.
