ARIZONA CARDINALS

Say my name: Cardinals give lessons in pronunciation

Let's be honest. You might not know how to pronounce every name on the Arizona Cardinals' roster. Here's how to say Tyrann Mathieu's name, among others.

You love talking about your Arizona Cardinals, but discussion requires pronouncing things correctly. And let’s be honest, you might not know how to pronounce every name on the Cardinals’ roster.

The team is here to help. The Cardinals put together this public service announcement featuring several players who have names that are often mispronounced.

Even though he’s Arizona’s star, safety Tyrann Mathieu’s name isn’t so easy to say. He apparently is called Ty-ronn quite a bit.

Rookie Marqui Christian’s name doesn’t seem so hard. But it’s too close to the more common name that ends with an S.

Then we come to the Cardinals’ first-round pick, Robert Nkemdiche. En-kem-diche. Nok-em-diche. ETC?

It’s simple: Kim-dee-chee.

Last but not least, rookie center Evan Boehm’s last name rhymes with fame.

Got it? Good.

Hi Evan Boehm , our last name is also Boehm. It was exciting to see our name on an nfl jersey . However we pronounce it beam , not bame. So maybe we aren't long lost cousins from Ohio. Bummer. P.S. Love the big Boehm theory
