     Btw, how do you pronounce his name? The intended way was Hugh-gun. I’m just afraid people will pronounce it Who-gon.

    LOL!! Who-gon!! XD That’s hysterical, but don’t worry, I do mentally pronounce it Hugh-gun. XD

    After some mental debate, may I add. It’s very similar to the Dutch name “Hugo” which is pronounced with a hard g instead of a soft one.

    I was curious as to which would be more historically accurate. If he was actually from the northern regions (Northern Netherlands and Germany, broadly) it would be pronounced in that way since the hard g was a thing back then, (as far as I know) but since he was from France, I’d say you have a pretty correct pronunciation.

    Wait, what was my point? Yeah, I was pronouncing it right and Whog-on is the worst possible way to pronounce it XD
