the male name Barry....how do you pronounce it?

[Tom Kitten]

Is it Barry as in bah bah Barry black sheep?

Or is it like Berry berry quite contrary?

or like Bear is in I love to cuddle with Teddy Beary?

Any other pronounciations?

[Dehumanizer]

1. "Bar" as in where you get drinks, "ry" as in rye bread...

Definitely go with this pronunciation if you come across one..

2. It's bah Barry just like Larry

Berry this drives me nuts.

Beary is close enough but still get a bit of a BP spike from it.

It's bah Barry just like Larry

3. I agree with you

people still misspell my name Berry and I very much dislike this, it's like come on, "Berry" is not a name!

Beary I've gotten used to being on the west coast for thirty years, although the correct pronounciation should be Barry just like Larry...

4. Famous Barry's

I know lots of Barry's who pronounce it like Larry. Commodore Barry and Barry Goldwater - that's how they pronounced it. In fact, I've never met a Barry who pronounced it any other way.
