a quick clarification of two pronunciation matters that have come up recently

1. The first name of a certain colleague of mine is NOT pronounced MEE-rah.

2. The first name of a certain much-beloved singer of mine is NOT pronounced MY-rah.

3. The correct pronunciation of these two names is left as an exercise for the reader.

Yes, I've crossed paths with both mispronunciations recently, hence the post!
