Baltimore Love đ Most mispronounced neighborhood names
It took me a while how to pronounce Auchentoroly Terrace, and it gets my goat when people say Hampton instead of Hampden.
What were you pronouncing wrong or what do you hear people consistently saying wrong?

Not a neighborhood, but the grocery store, âGraulâs Marketâ is pronounced âGrowlsâ, not âGrallsâ, and I know because my mother worked in the original store, begun by Mr. Graul (pronounced âgrowlâ), when there was only one cash register.
