How to pronounce Levi ?
I don't live in the US, and here in Germany we don't have the name 'Levi'. At least I haven't heard about it. I pronoune it : Loo - oui (like the french word 'yes').
What's the right pronounciation? (Cause I feel like mine is wrong, although I really like it this way:D)

I agree with the pp...it is definitely Lee-vie! It is a bible name, maybe there is a similar name in German. I will ask my husband, he lived in Germanyn and Switzerland for a while and has a German bible. He could tell you the German name for Levi (if there is one).
Yeah, in the german bible Levi is called Leviticus :) But their is no Levi on its own.
We have Leviticus too-Levi is in the Bible as the third son of Jacob after Reuben and Simeon

When I was younger I thought it was Lev-EE (When the Levee Breaks? XD)
But yeah, it's properly pronounced Lee-vie :)
