Talk:Gilles Peterson

message: I believe there's a lot more detail to Peterson's career, so I've added some new sub-headings, hopefully editors will consider adding to this.  It's perhaps worth writing a separate section on his involvement with various labels, including his new one Brownswood.  Escaper7 07:05, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

message: How is "Gilles" in this case pronounced? Is it like in French?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrarias (talk • contribs) 21:50, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: He always pronounces it like "Giles" (general British spelling) with a J (for "Jam") sound and "illes" sounds (like "Isles"). Mahrooq (talk) 16:54, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
replies: text:  Yeah as Mahrooq said. Though as his background is en français (his real second name, Moehrle, being Swiss I believe), so occasionally he jokes on his shows that it should actually be the French pronunciation of "Gilles"; almost sounding like "Jill" (using British RP pronunciation). But given he lives, and was brought up as British, so the French pronunciation should not actually be used, as "Gilles" in RP Brit English is "G-isles"; ie. we don't take-on the french pronunciation anyway being British English language speakers. (It's like the wrong usage of newsreaders pronouncing French names using their French pronunciation, when the English version of the French place is NOT pronounced in that way.) Hope you got all that, good, lol‽ --Jimthing (talk) 15:26, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Pronunciation of Name 

message: OK, so I have added the new section here, 6 Music template at bottom, and made a few edits to fix things. re. MBE: I noticed this had been added, and found a Debrett's cite with it, but still really not sure it's correct. Tried the London Gazette supplements where these things officially get advertised, and couldn't find the honour on there (though their database is a hell to get info out of, so possibly missed!) and other press was cold too, hence if someone else can add more verification cites here it would be great (or remove the thing if it's wrong, adding a hidden note box to explain the Debrett's cite error), thanks. GP|3hrs on 6M: nice! --Jimthing (talk) 09:49, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
