there is another saying ...
"when two vowels go walking, the first one does the talking, and it says its name" ...
(thus a long "i")

I had a girl in my class once ... her name was Danhl <?> she said it was Danielle,
so, uh, like, why didn't they spell it that way?
She could have told me her name was anything she wanted to...
there is no rule for pronouncing a name spelled that way ...
