For many years I've been pronouncing Sigil as Sij-ill, like the word sigil. Recently I read something in a post from WotC saying that it is pronounced sig-ill (hard G). This just sounded weird to me, so I am continuing to say it with a J sound. You know, like in GIF ๐Ÿ˜

Anyway, are there any other names of things in D&D that made you go "huh?" when you heard the official pronunciation?

Gay-Ass is a domain spell for the Oath of Throwing It Back Paladin.
