[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like Kerry and have only ever heard it used for a girl. I would pronounce Kerry and Carrie differently, so I wouldn't think of substituting one for the other. [/quote] How do you say them differently? They are the same .[/quote] Kerry rhymes with merry (men), while Carrie rhymes with marry (man). Its the difference between men and man. [/quote] I think this is an East Coast thing. I grew up on the West Coast and we don't differentiate between Kerry and Carrie. Both are pronounced like Kerry. [/quote] I'm east coast here. Maybe Boston or New Yorkers with accents pronounce those differently? Most do not. [/quote] I'm from NY -- they're all different. And the "t" in often is not pronounced ... ;) https://www.merriam-webster.com/words-at-play/correct-pronunciation-of-often https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-correct-way-to-pronounce-often-Is-the-t-silent [/quote]
