D eh B or rah

"Deborah is not pronounced D eh B uh ra but has become this because it gets mixed up with Debra; which is a shorter variant and the lazy/easier way of saying Deborah; Deborah and Debra may mean the same thing but are not pronounced the same - my grandmother named me - she was of Scottish and Hebrew ancestry and this is how she pronounced the name she gave me. I personally hate the confusion because my name is shortened to Debbie which is not my name, and this annoyed my grandmother. I was named after a Jewish relative. Also another variant is Devorah, which is pronounced D eh V or ah. The pronunciation of Deborah as Debra has become commonplace in our modern society but that does not make it correct nor right. If you want to name your child De B uh R ah then name them Debra which is pronounced D eh B ub r ah."
