jammen Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 (edited) I hear Flo and other sites saying Shapiro with a long i. This would be an unusual pronounciation of a traditional name. Does anyone know how Meyer says his family name? Edited December 12, 2023 by jammen spelling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lipdrag Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 This just in from the Pronunciations Pronouncement Department: The other freshman phenom's name is pronounced Messenb-rye-nk.
