Wait, it's not pronounced like that? I have been pronouncing it like that for years because I thought it was meant to rhyme.
How is it pronounced?

Oh, I was pronouncing it "tone rion" to rhyme with how tone is said in English. Is the tone in her name pronounced differently?

I can't seem to find any info about it other then this theory from her vocaloid wiki article that says "Rion's name is believed to be a double pun on the English word Tone and the musical instrument Tenori-on produced by YAMAHA. ". So perhaps we are both wrong:clara_ani_lili:

@Maribelle That makes sense. It's going to take a while to get used to it after so many years of saying it the wrong way:gackpo_ani_lili:
edit: I forgot to say thank you. I would have never figured it out otherwise.
