I don't know how to pronounce my English name?
Five or six years ago,i gave myself an English name(look at my Yahoo nickname).I was a middle school student then and have been using this name up till now.Seems i never know how to pronounce it.....
Any help would be highly appreciated.
It is Neuly
RoaringMice,thanks,but what i want is something like "[kəm'pjuːtə] ". I want to know its pronunciation.
This name consists of first letter from five English words.It's been too long so i can't remember what they are but i have used Neuly as my English name for 5 years.

I would pronounce it like the English would say "newly" so in IPA ˈnu li, or ˈnyu-li, but that's just me. However you pronounce it is the right way 'cause it's your name.

Unfortunately, that is not an English word. It is an English sounding word, but it is not an actual name. But that said, I really like how it sounds - New-lee - and many people in the US have creative and unusual names. Keep it!

"Neuly" does not look to me like an normal "English" name. It looks French to me. If you invent a name which does not look "English" you must expect people in an English-speaking society to be confused about how to pronounce it.
In southern Britain, a reasonably well-educated person might guess at "Ner-lee" or "New-ly" or even "Noi-ly" (if they had studied German). Americans would almost certainly have different ideas.
