    Jorge Muneauxz ?

    ps I'm with Cajun Monkee

    A Trahan leaves and instantly becomes a TrayHan.

    A TrayHan moves in and stays a TrayHan

    Ain't right.

    It's a Yankee influence corrective relic of Cajun society.

    I had a very good friend (deceased) who pronounced his name DehZERmo

    However a person pronounces their own name is correct.

    The w is misleading and the 'n' is silent.

    Similar to Trauhhaů

    Yes it is a slight to pronounce the n

    Man, started a 15 minute project this AM, and heck, I missed a lot.

    Congratulations ladies!

    All this name stuff, get back on track.

    Only one name matters today. Winner!

    There is a very soft 'n' at the end. There is certainly no emphasis on the 'n', so it is easily missed, but nearly every Trahan I know uses the soft 'n' at the end.

    It can't be called, an "n" sound, everyone I know ends the pronunciation of Trahan with open air... not with their tongue tapping their pallet.
