I'm having a debate with a friend on how his last name is pronounced. If anyone knows, spell it phonetically, please.
Joseph Fiennes = ?

Yeah. I just wanted to clarify. "Fines" as a one syllable word. Not "Fin-es"

It's Pronounced "Fines"

Like as in: I have multiple library fines.

Some lady on a news program pronounced it as "Fee-nees," but she knew she wasn't saying it right.

Lol I always thought it was pronounced "Feens" and wondered why his parents called him Joseph because then his name sounded like "Josephine's"!!

I always thought it was "Feens" too.
