There have been a million and one threads on this over the years but here is a post of mine from a year or so ago that discusses the pronunciation of "Phi"

I was having a discussion about the pronunciation of "Phi" this weekend and I was referred to the following webpages which have pronunciation guides for the greek alphabet:

http://www.mathacademy.com/pr/prime...greek/index.asp
http://www.ibiblio.org/koine/greek/...s/alphabet.html

According to these pages the letter "Phi" is pronounced "Fee" in Modern Greek. There are many different pronunciations of Greek words, but current academics believe that Modern Greek is the closest to New Testament Greek (but not identical).

I could not find anything that lends validity to the idea that the pronunciation is different when the Phi follows a vowel, or is the second letter without a third.

Here is a link to that thread.
