lets see i started listening to her in late 2007/early 2008. and i said namie. like nami. never got out of that habit. and i was always confused when i heard nami-eh in videos. until late last year did i figure out that was her real name. which is why im a failure. and i do still call her nami cuz is shorter. ^___^ ill only say nami-eh if im trying not to look stupid in a serious conversation. . .plus it feels awkawrd if i say nami-eh amuro. i dont say artists names out loud inversed so yeah.

I just became a fan of her recently and I say Nah-mee. I honestly thought it was pronounced that haha. But umm...I still don't see how to pronounce it the other way. I think I may have to watch something online with her to hear how to pronounce it....

my sister used to call her Nah-mee so I followed her LOL
but since I knew her name is pronounced Nah-mee-eh I started to call Nah-mee-eh
sometimes I also call Nah-mee accidentally

N as in never
A as in apprentice
M as in Mississippi
I as in Indiana
E as in Indiana

So I guess Na-mee-eh, but I have no idea. I'm Finnish and the pronunciation is like the Japanese (somewhat) - you say it like you spell it
