I'm gonna risk going a bit off-topic because of something that sticks in my craw:
[pronunciation rant warning]
Teledji Adeledji.
The English MSQ voice over, with every character pronounces it, "Tell-EDGE-ee ad-el-EDGE-ee"
I don't know how the other languages pronounce, it, but I cringe hard every time I hear it. HARD.
It is much more musical and rhythmical, at least in English, to pronounce it thus:
"TELL-Uh-Jee Uh-DELL-Uh Jee"
The stress pattern would be the same as in how an English speaker would pronounce "Melody Fidelity." Try it a few times, and see how it rolls off the tongue.
The rhyme is better, and the rhythm has much better euphony (much closer to Iambic rhythm, which is what, historically, English speakers find pleasing, and is the basic meter of Shakespeare).
The actual Japanese preference for stress, in the case of this name, may be different, I'm only concerned with the English. This pronunciation better fits what Lalafell are supposed to value in their names.
Unless.... Teledji secretly gets off on having a very weirdly pronounced name, and making people choke on it, which is believable, little bastard that he is.
And Nathan Telluride isn't hard... is it?

"But in the laugh there was another voice. A clearer laugh, an ironic laugh. A laugh which laughs because it chooses not to weep."
