    Sahala:  SHuh (short 'u') - HA (as in, haha) - luh (shurt 'u')

    SHuh-HA-luh (so, emphasis is on 'sh' sound and the middle syllable)

    I have to reply:

    I often correct others in game, because when they shorten my characters name they put "Vest"

    "I am not worn," I say.

    It is simply Ves, why? because it's three letters and gives more sound to the true pronunciation.

    Reason being, the 'T' Is silent, it's simply pronounced Vess-lyn It's a fuzzy name surely. But he's human, not Draconic *Grins*

    Ves, Vessy, Vestlyn (One of the three, no more, and no less.. Unless others should Arrive that I feel suitable.)

    Yours,
    YotS - Pronounced Yahts, or Y. O. T. S. if you prefer. I like Yahts it's short and quick.
