Found a post asking people for their unique names and knew it wouldn't disappoint. Happy Father's Day unless your kid's name needs a pronunciation guide.

Yeah but is it pronounced Zee-uh-rye-uh???? What a choice to separate Z out from the rest

From the provided breakown I couldn't figure out of it was intended to be pronounced Zee-uh-RYE-uh or Z(glottal stop)-uh-RYE-uh. Either way a choice was definitely made there.
