When I moved to Alabama, there were lots of older people who kept talking about women named May-rie, Ma-tha, and Say-ra. Took me some time to realize that they were talking about Mary, Martha, and Sara. You still hear the WW2 generation pronouncing those names thusly.

Agggh! Memories! When I first went to Auburn, I dated this guy and he said that his sister was Shay-ron and her husband was Hay-ron. So I had no idea how those were spelled but pronounced them for months like he and his mother did and found out, embarrassingly, that their names were Sharon and Herron.
