Saying my name

Napoleão de Souza is my family name.

It follows Portuguese tradition in being long!

English speakers usually pronounce it as:

[ nəˌpʰəlɪˈaw dəˈsuːzə ]

Whereas in careful Brazilian Portuguese one could say:

[nɐpoleˈɐ̃ʊ̯̃ dʒɪˈsoʊzɐ]

Listen to me saying it:

However, there is no need to stress about it since I am fine with hearing it in different accents and pronunciations!
