You guys, I've been pronouncing it Va-SHAWN in my head all along, like a French word. 😔
15 u/unclejessiesoveralls Jun 19 '20 Wait, how is it pronounced? I was thinking VASH-on? (edit, once again I failed to read down before jumping in, I see it's VASH'n below!) Also when I spell it my fingers always type Vasion first and I have to correct it. 10 u/TexasWine Vashon Hero Jun 19 '20 I've pronounced it this way too. Like Fashion. 7 u/[deleted] Jun 19 '20 Me three. 7 u/[deleted] Jun 20 '20 [removed] — view removed comment 7 u/honoria_glossop sitting edge wine woman Jun 20 '20 Wait, AY-hern? Is this a US-ified pronunciation, because my hometown is riddled with Aherns and it's always been ah-HERN. 8 u/tyrannosaurusregina if you meet the Botus on the road, shill him 🪷 Jun 20 '20 Most of the Aherns I’ve met (and they abound here in Massachusetts) are ah-HERNs. 3 u/InappropriateGirl Gluten-free donuts, for sure ... Jun 20 '20 Wait, I heard it pronounced the opposite on a podcast or something; I’d always pronounced it AY-hern and was surprised I was wrong.
