Collecting HLs and being a virtual resident of this website have been a teriffic education for me. However, because of the relative lack of face-to-face interaction with other collectors, my new knowledge is silent -- I don't know how to pronounce many of the names of the lights that I learn about. Some of the names I have wondered about and/or struggled with in the past are:
Coquille River
Minot's Ledge
Heceta Head
Assateague
Scituate
I'm sure you can think of others. Anyone else phonetically challenged like me? Maybe this could be a forum topic where various pronunciations can all get aired out and challenged?
